Tencent Cloud's Cloud Block Storage (CBS) offers a reliable block storage solution specifically designed for CVM instances, enabling users to manage their storage needs flexibly. Each Elastic Cloud Disk operates independently from the CVM instances, allowing for the connection of multiple disks to a single instance, which can then be easily unmounted and reassigned to different instances. CBS provides a variety of cloud disk types and specifications, ensuring consistent performance with low latency. Users can mount and unmount disks within the same availability zone, facilitating quick adjustments to storage capacity to meet fluctuating demand while only paying for the storage utilized. When existing storage space runs low, it is possible to acquire additional cloud disks to meet increased capacity needs. Moreover, if unexpected storage requirements arise after the initial purchase of a CVM instance, users can conveniently buy cloud disks to accommodate those needs. Data can be stored on a cloud disk and later transferred to another CVM instance by unmounting and remounting, allowing for seamless data migration. This functionality makes CBS a versatile choice for businesses looking to optimize their storage solutions effectively.
