FAQ
A few things you might ask.
How is this different from object storage?
Block storage is attached as a disk and used through a filesystem. Object storage stores objects accessed through an API; choose according to how your application reads and writes data.
Can two servers share one volume?
Do not assume simultaneous attachment is supported. It depends on the platform and requires compatible filesystems and application coordination. Confirm your design before sharing a volume.
Is it backed up automatically?
An attached volume is not itself a backup. Confirm whether a backup or snapshot service is configured, including retention and restore testing.
What happens if I delete the server?
Retention depends on the provider and deletion settings. Confirm the volume lifecycle and keep a verified backup before deleting a server or volume.
