As per recent announcement, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) has added the capability to clone a Block Storage Volume in seconds. This is an important milestone at a time where cloud wars are experienced between various cloud platform vendors.
Cloning of a Block Storage volume is a critical functionality required by many of the enterprise customers. How quickly a clone can be created is an important aspect for a Cloud Infrastructure provider.
Does the time taken to create a clone of a block storage volume vary depending on the capacity of the block storage volume i.e., in GBs to TBs?
