Research direction

No repository files, tests, or implementation entry points are named. Start by researching the EKS on Fargate volume limitations and how EBS-backed stateful pods are currently handled on standard worker nodes. Done would mean a defined, supported way to mount EBS volumes on EKS Fargate pods, with the required implementation scope and validation identified.
