Quickstart

DewaVPS offers two main types of storage solutions: Block Storage and Object Storage. All storage options are managed under Storage in the sidebar.

Block Storage

Block Storage provides raw storage volumes that you can attach to your instances as additional disks. It behaves like a physical hard drive, allowing you to format, partition, and mount it as needed.

Quick Steps

1. Navigate to Storage → Block Storage.
2. Click Create.
3. Enter a name (e.g., My Backup Storage), select tier, and size.
4. Click Submit.

5. Click Attach to connect it to an instance.

Object Storage

Object Storage is S3-compatible storage for unstructured data like images, videos, backups, and logs. It's accessible via RESTful API.

Features

Quick Steps

1. Navigate to Storage → Object Storage.
2. Click Create Bucket.
3. Enter a name (e.g., my-backups), size, location, and ACL.
4. Click Submit.

Access Keys

To access your buckets programmatically, create an Access Key:

1. Go to Object Storage → Access Key tab.
2. Click Create Access Key.
3. Configure name, expiration, bucket permissions, and ACL.
