# DigitalOcean Volume: "network-attached block storage" for Droplets and Kubernetes nodes, moved
# between Droplets in the same datacenter and snapshotted on demand ("Volumes"). "Volumes
# Features": SSD-backed with bursting, built on Ceph with replication across multiple hosts, and
# "All DigitalOcean Volumes are encrypted with LUKS", an encryption snapshots inherit. "Volumes
# Limits": 1 GiB to 16,384 GiB, 15 volumes per Droplet or DOKS node, 5,000 volumes per account,
# and 7,500 IOPS on shared-CPU Droplets against 10,000 on dedicated.
