Storage volume

Kingsoft Cloud Container Instance (KCI) supports the following types of data volumes:

• EmptyDir
• ConfigFile
• EBS

EmptyDir

An EmptyDir can be accessed by all containers in a container instance. You can use an EmptyDir to share data between different containers in a container instance.

Notes

• An EmptyDir is a temporary storage volume. When you delete a container instance where an EmptyDir is mounted, the data stored in the EmptyDir will also be deleted.
• An EmptyDir is 10 GB in size.

ConfigFile

You can use a ConfigFile to inject data into a container instance.

EBS

You can attach existing EBS volumes to a container instance. To create EBS volumes, you can use the EBS console or API.

Notes

• Up to two EBS volumes can be attached to a container instance.
• When you delete a container instance, the attached EBS volumes will not be deleted.
