identifying a source namespace associated with a source file system of a source system;
receiving a first specification of a container associated with the source namespace of the source system;
determining a container type for implementing the container within a destination namespace for a destination system;
generating a migration plan to migrate the source file system from the source system to the destination system as a destination file system having the destination namespace with the container having the container type; and
in response to receiving a second specification of a file path to utilize for the container once migrated to the destination system, including the file path within the migration plan.
