A question that may come to mind for those managing enterprise workloads is: What is Trident? This is the main question that George Tehrani, Director of Product Management, Open Ecosystem answered on this episode of The New Stack Makers, hosted by TNS founder and Editor-in-Chief Alex Williams.

"By and large, any workload of importance to the enterprise needs some sort of persistence. So what Trident is, is an open source storage orchestrator that NetApp developed and continues to maintain. It greatly simplifies the creation, management, and consumption of persistent storage for enterprise workloads in Kubernetes, as well as the other major distributions of Kubernetes such as OpenShift."
