Google Cloud zonal persistent disk

Today, let us go through the details of Google Cloud zonal persistent disk.

• First and foremost, persistent disks are durable network storage devices that the instances can access like physical disks in a desktop or a server.
• Secondly, persistent disks are used as boot disks
• Then, data on each persistent disk is distribute across several physical disks.
• Next, compute Engine manages the physical disks and the data distribution to ensure redundancy and optimal performance.
• Persistent disks are locate independently from the VM instances and can detach or move to keep the data even after the instance is delete
• Finally, persistent disk performance scales automatically with size, so they can resize or additional ones add to meet the performance and storage space requirements.

Persistent Disk Types

• Standard persistent disks (pd-standard) are back by standard hard disk drives (HDD).
• Balanced persistent disks (pd-balanced) are back by solid-state drives (SSD). They are an alternative to SSD persistent disks that balance performance and cost.
• SSD persistent disks (pd-ssd) are backed by solid-state drives (SSD).

Zonal Persistent Disks

• Firstly, zonal persistent disks provide durable storage and replication of data within a single zone in a region.
• Persistent disks have built-in redundancy to protect the data against equipment failure and to ensure data availability through datacenter maintenance events.
• For additional space on the persistent disks, resize the disks and resize the single file system rather than repartitioning and formatting.
• Compute Engine automatically encrypts the data in transit, before it travels outside of the instance to persistent disk storage space.
• Zonal persistent disk remains encrypt either with system-defined keys or with customer-supplied keys.
