volummanagement
Volummanagement refers to the set of practices, tools, and software used to control storage volumes in computing environments. It includes provisioning, presenting, resizing, and monitoring disk space, spanning physical disks, virtual disks, and networked storage. The aim is to optimize utilization, performance, data protection, and administrative control over storage resources.
In traditional block storage, volume management typically organizes disks into volume groups and logical volumes. A
Common implementations include Linux Logical Volume Manager (LVM), ZFS and Btrfs on various platforms, and Windows
Challenges include complexity of managing heterogeneous environments, performance trade-offs, data integrity during resizing or migrations, backup
Volummanagement is essential in data centers, cloud deployments, database systems, and backup architectures, enabling scalable, resilient
