  • Latest features

    Volume types

    Premium volume types have recently been released. Premium volumes utilise NVMe SSD technology and are best suited for workloads requiring high read and write speeds. 

    Our standard volume types utilise spinning disk technology and are best suited for environments requiring low to medium read and write speeds. They provide cost-effective storage for large quantities of less frequently accessed data.
