+# Supported Kubernetes Versions
+
+- In general, Velero works on Kubernetes version 1.7 or later (when Custom Resource Definitions were introduced).
+- Restic support requires Kubernetes version 1.10 or later, or an earlier version with the mount propagation feature enabled. See [Restic Integration][17].
+
+# Compatible Storage Providers
+
+Velero supports a variety of storage providers for different backup and snapshot operations. Velero has a plugin system which allows anyone to add compatibility for additional backup and volume storage platforms without modifying the Velero codebase.
+
+## Backup Storage Providers
+
+| Provider                  | Owner    | Contact                         |
+|---------------------------|----------|---------------------------------|
+| [AWS S3][2]               | Velero Team | [Slack][10], [GitHub Issue][11] |
+| [Azure Blob Storage][3]   | Velero Team | [Slack][10], [GitHub Issue][11] |
+| [Google Cloud Storage][4] | Velero Team | [Slack][10], [GitHub Issue][11] |
+
+## S3-Compatible Backup Storage Providers
+
+Velero uses [Amazon's Go SDK][12] to connect to the S3 API. Some third-party storage providers also support the S3 API, and users have reported the following providers work with Velero:
+
+_Note that these providers are not regularly tested by the Velero team._
+
+ * [IBM Cloud][5]
+ * [Minio][9]
+ * Ceph RADOS v12.2.7
+ * [DigitalOcean][7]
+ * Quobyte
+ * [NooBaa][16]
+
+_Some storage providers, like Quobyte, may need a different [signature algorithm version][15]._
+
+## Volume Snapshot Providers
+
+| Provider                         | Owner           | Contact                         |
