NFS Datastore use cases

Experience efficient scaling and reliable recovery for VMware workloads.

Running test environments with fast recovery

Quickly roll back to clean states when testing applications or system changes.

  • Create snapshots before running updates or new software installs
  • Instantly restore previous states after failed a test or misconfiguration

Protecting critical workloads with layered backups

Enhance data safety by using snapshots alongside traditional backups.

  • Set scheduled snapshots to create frequent restore points
  • Recover files or systems quickly without disrupting active workloads

Scaling storage for data-heavy applications

Meet growing storage needs without scaling compute.

  • Add NFS Datastores up to 32 TB directly from the Cloud Panel
  • Maintain performance while expanding storage for media, logs or archives
