vSphere storage for docker (VDVS) enables customers to address persistent storage requirements for Docker containers in vSphere environments. This service is integrated with Docker Volume Plugin framework. Docker users can now consume vSphere Storage (vSAN, VMFS, NFS, VVol) to stateful containers using Docker.
