Local disks

The local disk is connected directly to the Compute Server via the PCIe interface using the NVMe protocol. Therefore, a local disk can only be created with cloud database cluster.

The local disk has no network latency, so it is suitable for tasks that are sensitive to read and write speeds.

Performance and throughput

To see a list of available configurations, see the instructions Versions and configurations.

Fixed configurations

Local disk performance and throughput in fixed configurations depends on the size of the disk.
