Block Storage

A type of data storage where data is saved in distinct blocks, each with a unique identifier. Each block acts like an individual hard disk, and can be configured or manipulated independently of the other blocks.

The benefits

Economy of scale

Storage space can be adapted to suit requirements, and you only pay for what you actually use. Storage costs are optimized, and there’s no need to worry about purchasing and maintaining hardware.

Flexibility and control

Each block acts as an individual hard disk drive, configurable according to specific needs. The assurance of total control over how data is organized and stored, to best meet requirements.

High performance

Guaranteed exceptionally fast read and write speeds, ideal for data-intensive applications such as databases or certain business applications. The assurance of improved business productivity.

Features

Backup and restoration features

Snapshots: ability to create snapshots of volumes, allowing data to be saved at a specific point in time. Data persistence: data stored remains available as long as the volume exists. Snapshot portability: ability to use snapshots to recreate similar volumes in the same or a different region, facilitating migration and disaster recovery.

Various performance options

Standard HDD storage: economical option for less intensive workloads. Optimized SSD storage: option for applications requiring high performance. Guaranteed performance SSD storage: offers predictable and consistent IOPS for critical workloads.

Flexibility and scalability

On-demand volume creation: ability to create and attach block storage volumes to their virtual machines as needed. Dynamic sizing: rapidly adjustable storage capacity up to 16 TiB per volume. Scalable performance: ability to reach up to 36,000 IOPS per virtual machine to handle the most demanding workloads.

Operational flexibility and agility

Rapid provisioning: ability to create and attach storage volumes in just a few clicks, reducing time-to-market for business projects. On-demand scalability: rapidly adjustable storage capacity (up to 16 TiB per volume), allowing for adaptation to seasonal peaks or unexpected growth. Adaptability to various needs: with different performance options (HDD, optimized SSD, guaranteed SSD), each service can choose the storage that best suits its specific needs and budget.

Business continuity and data security

NumSpot block storage ensures business continuity and protects critical data: High availability: With a 99.7% uptime, business teams can rely on reliable access to their essential data. Advanced backup features: The creation of snapshots allows teams to quickly back up their critical data, reducing the risk of data loss. Simplified recovery: In the event of an incident, data can be quickly restored from snapshots, minimizing downtime for business activities.

Cost and performance optimization

Pay-per-use billing: guaranteed cost control, departments only pay for the storage they actually use. Performance tailored to needs: optimal performance for business applications with up to 36,000 IOPS per virtual machine. Reduced infrastructure costs: by eliminating the need to invest in physical hardware, companies can reallocate their financial resources to other strategic initiatives.
