Critter Junction has now acquired and integrated new VMs into their existing architecture. However, they found that some persistent disks in their architecture are being underutilized, while other resources are over-utilized. They also realized that some of their VMs would quickly outgrow their current disk size. In this episode of Season of Scale, we review what Persistent Disks are, how Critter Junction can more efficiently utilize Persistent Disks, and scale them up without disruptions. Watch to learn how to optimize your use of persistent disks for scale, efficiency, and cost.
