NVMe-speed volumes.
Up to 1M IOPS with instant snapshots.
Up to 1M IOPS
NVMe protocol with io_uring support. Sustained 1M IOPS for database and analytics workloads.
Instant snapshots
Copy-on-write snapshots that complete in seconds regardless of volume size. Crash-consistent.
Live volume resize
Expand volumes without detaching or restarting. Increase IOPS and throughput on the fly.
Encryption by default
AES-256 encryption with customer-managed keys. No performance penalty.
Multi-attach
Attach a single volume to multiple compute instances for clustered file systems.
Scheduled snapshots
Automated snapshot policies with retention management and cross-region copy.
Getting started
