Optimized storage tiers for every stage of your data lifecycle.
PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, and Redis thrive on our low-latency NVMe volumes. Handles heavy write amplification and connection spikes effortlessly.
High IOPS / Low LatencyThin-provisioned volumes with fast clone capabilities. Spin up thousands of VDI instances with consistent disk performance across all nodes.
Thin Provisioning / CloningAutomated cross-AZ replication and instant snapshot rollbacks. Meet RPO < 1s and RTO < 5min requirements for critical compliance standards.
Sync/Async ReplicationPay only for what you use. No egress fees on attached volumes. Free tier available.
Provision, attach, and manage block volumes via our CLI, REST API, or Terraform provider. Fully compatible with OpenStack Cinder and AWS EBS APIs.
Everything you need to know about CloudNexus Block Storage.
Yes. CloudNexus supports live expansion. You can increase volume size without detaching or rebooting the instance. The guest OS may require a filesystem resize command, but the block device grows instantly.
Our encryption engine uses dedicated hardware accelerators and kernel-bypass techniques, resulting in zero measurable performance penalty. IOPS and throughput remain identical to unencrypted volumes.
Snapshots are block-level incremental. Only changed blocks are stored, saving up to 80% in snapshot storage costs. Restores from any snapshot create a completely independent volume.
Deletion permanently removes the volume after a 7-day soft-delete grace period. We strongly recommend enabling automated snapshots before deletion. Once the grace period expires, data is cryptographically shredded and unrecoverable.
