Block Storage.
Every write, three times.

NVMe volumes for the stateful workloads you run on Kubernetes. A write is acknowledged once it lands on three independent failure domains.

Synchronous replication

Writes land on three failure domains before they are acknowledged. Losing a host loses no data.

Kubernetes native

PersistentVolumeClaims through the CSI driver, with dynamic provisioning and online resizing.

No burst credits

No per-operation fees. The bill follows the volume size.

One price per GB.
Performance included.

You pay for the size you provision. Throughput and operations are part of it.

Kubernetes native.
One claim, one volume.

Create a PersistentVolumeClaim and the CSI driver provisions the volume.

Questions.
Answered.

What is block storage, and how is it different from object storage?

Block storage is a raw disk that an operating system or a Kubernetes Pod formats and mounts. Databases, message queues and other stateful workloads need it. Object storage is reached over an HTTP API and suits files, backups and unstructured data. enum offers both, billed separately.

How do I use block storage with enum Kubernetes Engine?

Create a PersistentVolumeClaim and the CSI driver provisions the volume. Dynamic provisioning and online resizing work out of the box.

Can I attach block storage without Kubernetes?

Disks for standalone compute instances are in preview. The same NVMe-backed, replicated volumes back both.

What does it cost?

€0.10 per GB a month for the size you provision, with no throughput surcharges and no per-operation fees. Every Kubernetes node includes 100 GB of disk. Prices are in euros and exclude VAT.

Is my data replicated and encrypted?

Every write is replicated synchronously across three independent failure domains, so a single host or disk failure causes no data loss or downtime. Volumes are encrypted at rest with AES-256.

Where is my data stored?

In a Tier III+ data centre in Frankfurt, Germany. enum GmbH is a German company with no US parent.
