New to CloudStack

I'm a new Prod Mgr and wondering what it takes to support CloudStack as a storage provider.
Is there a portal for storage vendors or documents on how to support the API?
Is there any way to support CloudStack without having a specific driver for the API?
Can we just appear as local storage to a CloudStack server?

Guidance is greatly appreciated.

Hi,

I also work for a storage company.
