After an extensive beta test, we are launching a brand-new Big Storage platform today. Big Storage is unprecedentedly cheap and reliable secondary storage for your VPS. This makes Big Storage ideal for, among other things, backup servers, file servers, and media servers.
On this new platform, which uses Ceph, your data is automatically distributed over a complete storage cluster. This allows your Big Storage to remain available in the event of a failure of one or more servers.
As of today, all new Big Storage disks will be provisioned on this new platform. Existing disks will be migrated in the coming months. You will of course receive a message when this is the case for your Big Storage.
