What Is Nice To Know

How are Volumes managed in OpenStack?
In OpenStack, volumes are managed by the Block Storage service, which provides APIs for creating, attaching, detaching, and deleting volumes. The Block Storage service also supports various volume types, such as solid-state drives (SSDs) and magnetic disk drives, to provide different levels of performance and cost.

Volumes are commonly used for storing data that needs to be persisted across instances, such as databases, application data, and user files. They can also be used for creating snapshots, which are point-in-time copies of a volume that can be used for backup and disaster recovery purposes.

Why is object storage useful?
Object storage is useful for storing large amounts of unstructured data, such as images, videos, log files, and backups. It provides scalable, durable, and highly available storage that can be accessed from anywhere over the internet. It can also be integrated with other OpenStack services, such as Compute, to provide a complete cloud solution.
What is local disk storage?
This is the default volume type in OpenStack, where an instance uses the local disk of the compute node. Local disk volumes are created and deleted automatically when instances are created and deleted.
