 The Splunk Operator includes a method for configuring a SmartStore remote storage volume with index support using a [Custom Resource](https://splunk.github.io/splunk-operator/CustomResources.html). The SmartStore integration is not implemented as a StorageClass. This feature and its settings rely on support integrated into Splunk Enterprise. See [SmartStore](https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/Indexer/AboutSmartStore) for information on the feature and implementation considerations.
