    Use Cases

    COS is a distributed storage service provided by Tencent Cloud to store massive files. You can store and view data at any time over a network. Tencent Cloud COS provides scalable, affordable, reliable, and secure data storage services for all users.
    With the COS-CSI add-on, you can quickly use COS as COSFS in your cluster through standard native Kubernetes. For more information, see COSFS.

    Limits

    Supports clusters with Kubernetes version 1.10 and later.
    For Kubernetes 1.12 clusters, the following kubelet configuration must be added: --feature-gates=KubeletPluginsWatcher=false.
    For more information on the limits of COSFS, see COSFS.
    To use COS in TKE, you must install this add-on in your cluster, which consumes some system resources.

    COS-CSI Permission

    Permission Description

    The permission of this component is the minimal dependency required for the current feature to operate.
    The related directory /var/lib/kubelet on the host machine needs to be mounted to the container to accomplish volume mount/unmount, hence the activation of the privileged-level container is required.
