Cinder

See Help:Adding Disk Space to Cloud VPS instances#Cinder for instructions on using Cinder with your Cloud VPS instances.

Cinder is a Block Storage service for OpenStack. It virtualizes the management of block storage devices and provides end users with a self service API to request and consume those resources without requiring any knowledge of where their storage is actually deployed or on what type of device.

The Cloud VPS OpenStack cluster has Cinder installed with Ceph as the underlying storage system.
