The Rook NFS operator has been deprecated due to lack of community support. We recommend that users consider Rook-Ceph's CephNFS which is under active development. Alternatively, there is a classical, non-CSI NFS server provisioner if users don't wish to run a CephCluster and CephFilesystem to host NFS storage.
Rook is an open source cloud-native storage orchestrator for Kubernetes, providing the platform, framework, and support for a diverse set of storage solutions to natively integrate with cloud-native environments.
Rook turns storage software into self-managing, self-scaling, and self-healing storage services. It does this by automating deployment, bootstrapping, configuration, provisioning, scaling, upgrading, migration, disaster recovery, monitoring, and resource management. Rook uses the facilities provided by the underlying cloud-native container management, scheduling and orchestration platform to perform its duties.
Rook integrates deeply into cloud native environments leveraging extension points and providing a seamless experience for scheduling, lifecycle management, resource management, security, monitoring, and user experience.
For more details about the storage solutions currently supported by Rook, please refer to the project status section below. We plan to continue adding support for other storage systems and environments based on community demand and engagement in future releases. See our roadmap for more details.
Rook is hosted by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) as a graduated level project. If you are a company that wants to help shape the evolution of technologies that are container-packaged, dynamically-scheduled and microservices-oriented, consider joining the CNCF. For details about who's involved and how Rook plays a role, read the CNCF announcement.
For installation, deployment, and administration of the NFS storage provider, see our Documentation.
We welcome contributions. See Contributing to get started.
For filing bugs, suggesting improvements, or requesting new features, please open an issue.

The status of each storage provider supported by Rook can be found in the main Rook repo.
| Name | Details | API Group | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| NFS | Network File System (NFS) allows remote hosts to mount file systems over a network and interact with those file systems as though they are mounted locally. | nfs.rook.io/v1alpha1 | Alpha |
Official releases of the NFS operator can be found on the releases page. Please note that it is strongly recommended that you use official releases of Rook, as unreleased versions from the master branch are subject to changes and incompatibilities that will not be supported in the official releases. Builds from the master branch can have functionality changed and even removed at any time without compatibility support and without prior notice.
Releases of the NFS operator prior to v1.7 are found in the main Rook repo.
