Tell us about your request
Expected to have a native support managed by ECS and EKS service of FSx ONTAP mounted on ECS and EKS Fargate Linux and Widnwos Idealy same way as EFS mount mechanism for Linux and not inside the container of the tasks with operating system actions.
Today, ECS and EKS Fargate only support FSXxfor ONTAP with ECS

• Amazon Elastic Container Service with FSx for ONTAP

We and our partners are building services using ECS and EKS with Cloud storage (FSx for ONTAP). We want to enable Fargate for variable and batch workloads / autoscaling to migrate On-prem services and optimize services on AWS as Serverless architecture.
Unfortunately, the storage requirements of Fargate prohibit us from doing this. If the Fargate nodes made use of the CSI drivers and could mount such PVs, then we would be functional for EKS. And if the ECS Fargate Tasks allowed us to mount FSx for ONTAP, we can deploy application without caring infrastructure.

Which service(s) is this request for?
ECS Fargate and EKS Fargate with FSx for ONTAP for Linux and Windows

Tell us about the problem you're trying to solve. What are you trying to do, and why is it hard?
Mount FSx ONTAP storage between ECS and EKS Linux and Windows tasks and nodes.
We cannot re-factor as serverless architecture by the limitation of Persistent External File Storage now. Existing option like EFS, S3, and EBS cannot match Read/Write File performance and File share within/between AZs.

Are you currently working around this issue?
Our only workaround presently is to not use Fargate and use EC2 on ECS or EC2 on EKS, but those are not Serverless.

Additional context
Some similar tickets exist, but for FSx Lustre or Windows container. Not for ONTAP as Multi-protocol OS for Linux and Windows.
FSx Lustre for linux on Fargate
FSx for windows on Fargate
