Volumes in a PostgreSQL for 1C cluster

In a Managed Databases cluster PostgreSQL for 1C, you can use local and network drives. The drive type used depends on the selected configuration line.

You can select a configuration line with the required drive type and drive size when creating a Managed Databases cluster. After creating a cluster, you can change the line to another one with the same drive type and increase the drive size — scale the cluster.

You can view drive performance and throughput in different configuration lines in the Performance and throughput table.

Local disks

Configuration lines
  • Standard;
  • CPU;
  • Memory;
  • HighFreq;
  • Dedicated;
  • Flex
Disk typeSSD NVMe disk
Technical specifications The disk subsystem is configured in RAID 1 for the Dedicated lineup and in RAID 10 for the Standard, CPU, Memory, HighFreq, and Flex lineups
AdvantagesLow data access latency
UsageSuitable for tasks sensitive to read and write performance
Number of disks in the DBMS1
Changing configuration
  • in all configuration lines with a local drive, except for Flex, you cannot increase only the local drive, but you can change the entire node configuration — scale the cluster;
  • a configuration line with a local disk can only be changed to a line with a network volume during cluster recovery

DeletionDeleted along with all data when the cluster is deleted

Network volumes

Configuration linesFlex
Disk typeSSD NVMe disk
Technical specificationsManaged by a software-defined storage (SDS) system — Ceph
Advantages
  • triple disk volume replication;
  • network volume size is independent of the number of vCPUs
UsageNot recommended for systems sensitive to network latency and response time. For example, suitable for data archiving
Number of disks in the DBMS1
Changing configuration
  • no downtime when changing disk size;
  • when changing the number of vCPUs and RAM, downtime depends on the number of nodes in the cluster: in single-node clusters, downtime is equal to the node reboot time (one to two minutes), and in multi-node clusters — the time taken to switch to another node (less than one minute);
  • a configuration line with a network volume can only be changed to a line with a local disk during cluster recovery
