Mount containerd images from external volume on a Kubernetes worker node

[sasanknvs]

I am trying to understand if it is feasible to store the containerd images on a external storage like AWS EBS(Elastic Block storage). The use case I am working on is, I need to pull huge images on a dynamically provisioned node and delete the node once the job is done. Since the size of the images are huge, it is taking more time to start the "Pod".
In case if I can store the images externally on an EBS and take a snapshot of it and then I can restore it on the dynamically provisioned node's EBS, it will reduce the Pod initialization time. If this is possible it will avoid the "image pull time".

Any solutions/ideas are much appreciated.
