receiving, by a container storage system executing on a node within a container system, a storage operation configured to be performed with respect to a storage resource;
determining that the storage resource is not locally accessible at the node; and
routing the storage operation to the storage resource based on the determining, wherein the routing sends the storage operation from a driver in a kernel space of the node to a user space of the node, and from the user space of the node to an additional node, within the container system, at which the storage resource is implemented.
