- Auto-scaling - Volumes automatically scale up with regional pod deployments and detach when scaling down
- Encrypted by default - All persistent data is AES encrypted
- Flexible storage - Each volume can expand up to 100GB (standard accounts) or 30GB (trial accounts), but can only be extended, never reduced
- Dedicated volumes - Each pod generates its own unique blank volume with no data duplication
- Shared access - Containers within the same pod can share the same volume
- Automatic reattachment - Detached volumes reattach automatically if your app scales up regionally
- Unique mount paths - Mount paths are unique to the application
Regional behavior
Volumes are tied to specific regions. This means:- If your app runs in multiple regions (e.g., EU, US, APAC), each region gets its own independent volumes
- A pod in one region cannot access volumes from another region
- When scaling to a new region, new volumes are automatically provisioned in that region
- Each pod within the same region gets its own dedicated blank volume (no data duplication between pods)
Quickstart
Add volume details
During container setup, add your volume details including the mount path and
initial size.

FAQ
Will I still be charged while my volume is detached from the container?
Will I still be charged while my volume is detached from the container?
Yes, you will still be charged while the volume exists, even if it’s
detached from a container. The volume still reserves storage capacity.
How do volumes scale down?
How do volumes scale down?
The default behavior means the volume will detach when scaling down.
Can I reduce the size of my volume?
Can I reduce the size of my volume?
No, you cannot reduce the size of your volume. You can only extend it to
make it larger.
