Examples described herein relate to management of containers in a storage system. Examples may receive a container specification corresponding to a container image. Examples may obtain the container image from a container repository and select storage volumes based on the container specification. Examples may execute one or more containers from the container image on a controller of the storage system within resource limits. Examples may dynamically select the controllers based on resource availability at the plurality of controllers. Examples may allow scheduling the execution of the containers at a specific controller at a predetermined time. The execution may include performing one or more batch operations on the storage volumes. Examples may further enable monitoring a status of the container and providing alerts in response to a detection of a failure event associated with the container.
