DigitalOcean - Take snapshot
- Snapshots are on-demand full copy disk images of Droplets. Snapshots are not incremental.
- We also backup snapshots offsite for additional resiliency.
- You can use snapshots to create new Droplets, restore a Droplet to the point in time, or migrate a Droplet to a different region.
- Snapshots are retained indefinitely until manually deleted.
- Snapshots are independent of the Droplets used to create them.
- You can create up to one snapshot every 10 minutes.
- We recommend turning off your Droplet before taking a snapshot to ensure data consistency.
- Snapshots can take up to 1 minute per GB of data used by your Droplet.
- Snapshots
cost $0.05/GiB/month based on the size of the snapshot (not the size of the filesystem).
- There is a minimum charge of $0.01, which may apply for very small snapshots or snapshots that exist only for a short time.
- There is no additional charge for making a snapshot available in multiple regions.
