STACKIT File Storage now available with Snapshot Scheduling and Immutable Snapshots
Section titled “STACKIT File Storage now available with Snapshot Scheduling and Immutable Snapshots”We are happy to announce that STACKIT File Storage now got two additional features available that we would like to announce today:
- Snapshot Scheduling: You now can use “Scheduling” to automatically let Snapshots been created automatically. This is increased by even more options for the time slice.
- The Snapshot Scheduling is a great baseline for the second new feature, the Immutable Snapshots. For both types of Snapshots, the automatically scheduled ones as well as for the manually created Snapshots, there is now an option to set them as “Immutable” with a specified retention period (up to 30 days).
This new functions are available in the Portal, Terraform, and STACKIT CLI/SDK.
