Volume Snapshots

Quake AI concept: Snapshots

  • Proprietary API /v2/volumes/{volume_id}/snapshots instead of OpenStack /v3/{project_id}/snapshots.
  • Explicitly crash-consistent only, no automatic filesystem consistency (requires manual power-off/sync); OpenStack snapshots can use quiescing drivers for apps like databases.
  • Snapshots billed separately based on block-level used size (may exceed filesystem due to trim); OpenStack typically similar. See the DigitalOcean pricing page for current rates.
  • Can create new volumes only in same region as snapshot; OpenStack snapshots more flexible for cross-region with upload/download.
