Converged infrastructure platform comprising middleware preconfigured to support containerized workloads

摘要

An apparatus in one embodiment comprises a processing platform that includes a plurality of processing devices each comprising a processor coupled to a memory. The processing platform is configured to implement converged infrastructure including a plurality of containers. The converged infrastructure comprises one or more middleware layers configured to support containerized workloads running in respective ones of the containers using underlying commodity hardware. The one or more middleware layers comprise a container hub having a plurality of preconfigured containers for use with respective particular types of containerized workloads, a container engine adapted to provide the preconfigured containers for the container hub, and software-defined storage configured to provide storage resources for allocation by the container engine to the preconfigured containers. The preconfigured containers of the container hub illustratively comprise a plurality of open source software containers preconfigured for running respective particular types of open source software.
