Koyeb has launched a technical preview of Volumes, a new feature that allows for persistent data storage on their platform, which previously relied on ephemeral disks. This development enables the deployment of stateful workloads, such as databases and queue systems, by providing storage backed by NVMe SSDs, ensuring low latency and high throughput. Volumes are available in all regions and can be attached to any instance type, including GPUs, although they are local to a single machine and require distributed software for high availability and fault tolerance. Users can participate in the technical preview free of charge and are encouraged to explore various use cases, such as deploying databases like MySQL or PostgreSQL, and storage solutions like MinIO. The platform provides tools like the Koyeb CLI for easy creation and management of Volumes, supporting both new and existing services. This feature is part of Koyeb's broader launch week initiative, and users can stay updated and provide feedback through Koyeb's community channels.
