IOMesh is officially available on Red Hat Ecosystem Catalog.
According to CNCF Survey 2020, a large proportion of stateful applications are running in containers, while storage remains one of the major challenges in using/deploying containers. The bottleneck lies in high requirements of stability and performance. With a high IOPS and ultra-low latency achieved by IOMesh, IO-intensive applications such as databases can run smoothly in containers.
