耐久性のある永続ブロック ストレージは、VM の停止、一時停止、削除後、または VM がクラッシュまたは障害が発生した場合でも保持する必要のあるデータに使用します。
Google Cloudには耐久性のあるブロック ストレージ サービスとして Hyperdisk と Persistent Disk がありますが、最新のマシンシリーズでは Persistent Disk を使用できません。最高のパフォーマンスと高度な機能を実現するには、Hyperdisk を使用することをおすすめします。
Hyperdisk ボリュームと Persistent Disk ボリュームには、次の特性があります。
物理ディスクとして機能する: Hyperdisk ボリュームまたは Persistent Disk ボリュームは、コンピューティング インスタンスに物理ディスクとしてアタッチされている場合と同様に使用できます。ただし、これらのデバイスは Google のネットワーク経由でデータを送信するネットワーク接続デバイスです。
ポータビリティ: Hyperdisk ボリュームと Persistent Disk ボリュームは、アタッチするコンピューティング インスタンスから独立しています。この特性により、実行中のインスタンスにダウンタイムなしでボリュームをアタッチできます。ボリュームを切断して、インスタンスを削除した後もデータを保持できます。

You can use block storage for boot\nand data volumes for all compute instances, including virtual machines (VMs),\ncontainers, and bare metal instances. This page discusses how to choose block storage\nfor your compute instances.\n\nThe terms *disk* , *volume* , and *block storage volume* are synonymous\nand are used interchangeably across the documentation, the Google Cloud console,\nthe Google Cloud CLI, and the REST API.\n\nAbout block storage\n\nGoogle Cloud offers two types of disks, or block storage---temporary and\ndurable block storage. You can combine these block storage types in a single\ncompute instance.\n\nTemporary block storage\n\nTemporary, or ephemeral, block storage offers the fastest performance among\nall block storage types, with the tradeoff that the *stored data is lost if the\nVM stops for any reason*. Data is lost if you stop, suspend, or restart the VM,\nor if the VM crashes or fails.\n\nBecause of its ephemeral nature, use temporary block storage for only\nscratch data, caches such as `tempdb` for Microsoft SQL Server, or storage for\nflash-optimized databases. You can't use temporary block storage as a boot volume.\n\nLocal SSD is the temporary block storage offering in Google Cloud. Local SSD\ndisks are physically attached to the server that hosts your instance.\n\nFor more information about Local SSD, see the following sections:\n\n- Review [Local SSD performance limits](/compute/docs/disks/local-ssd)\n- To learn when Local SSD data is preserved, see [Local SSD data persistence](/compute/docs/disks/local-ssd#data_persistence)\n- [Supported machine series for Local SSD](/compute/docs/disks/local-ssd#machine-types)\n- [Add Local SSD disks you create a VM](/compute/docs/disks/add-local-ssd)\n\nDurable block storage\n\nDurable, or persistent, block storage is for data that you want to preserve after\nyou stop, suspend or delete the VM, or even if the VM crashes or fails.\n\n[Hyperdisk](/compute/docs/disks/hyperdisks)\nand [Persistent Disk](/compute/docs/disks/persistent-disks) are the durable\nblock storage offerings in Google Cloud, but Persistent Disk isn't available\nwith the latest machine series. Google recommends using Hyperdisk\nfor the highest performance and advanced features.\n\nHyperdisk and Persistent Disk volumes have the following characteristics:\n\n- **Function as physical disks**: you can use a Hyperdisk or\n Persistent Disk volume with compute instance as if it was a physical disk attached\n to the instance. However, they are network-attached devices that transmit data\n over Google's networks.\n\n- **Portability**: Hyperdisk and Persistent Disk volumes are independent\n of the compute instances that you attach them to. This characteristic means\n you can attach a volume to a running instance without downtime. You can also\n detach the volume to keep your data even after you delete the instance.\n\n- **Security**: by default, data is encrypted at rest and in transit. You can\n also customize the encryption with your own keys.\n\n- **High availability options**: protect your data from zonal failures by replicating\n the volume across two zones.\n\nDifferences between Hyperdisk and Persistent Disk\n\nHyperdisk and Persistent Disk both offer durable, secure, and efficient\nblock storage, but Google recommends using Hyperdisk.\n\nHyperdisk offers the following key advantages over Persistent Disk:\n\n- Customizable performance: You can independently configure the performance and\n size of each Hyperdisk volume. Hyperdisk\n performance is independent of provisioned capacity. This feature means that\n you can increase or decrease a Hyperdisk volume's performance\n without changing its size.\n\n Unlike Hyperdisk, Persistent Disk performance depends on\n provisioned capacity. Consequently, to improve a Persistent Disk volume's\n performance, you must increase its size.\n- Better overall performance: Hyperdisk has higher IOPS and\n throughput limits than Persistent Disk.\n\nChoose a type of block storage\n\nTo decide between Local SSD, Hyperdisk and Persistent Disk,\nfollow these steps:\n\n1. Determine whether you need durable or temporary block storage. For\n example, the boot volume for a compute instance must use durable block\n storage.\n\n2. If you need to use temporary block storage, use Local SSD if Local SSD\n is available for your machine series. If you need durable storage, continue to the next step.\n\n3. If you need to use durable block storage, use Hyperdisk if it's\n [available for your machine series](/compute/docs/disks/hyperdisks#machine-type-support).\n If your machine series doesn't support Hyperdisk, use\n Persistent Disk.\n\n4. Choose\n the Hyperdisk or Persistent Disk type that best suits your\n workload. To learn about the Hyperdisk and Persistent Disk types, see\n [Choose a Hyperdisk type](/compute/docs/disks/hyperdisks#when-to-use)\n and [Persistent Disk types](/compute/docs/disks/persistent-disks#disk-types),\n respectively.\n\nFor more information about the features, performance, and durability of\nHyperdisk, see [About Hyperdisk](/compute/docs/disks/hyperdisks).\nFor Persistent Disk, see [About Persistent Disk](/compute/docs/disks/persistent-disks).\n\nAlternatives to block storage\n\nIn addition to the disks that Google Cloud offers, you can deploy the following\nalternative storage solutions on your compute instances.\n\n- [Create a file server or distributed file system](/architecture/filers-on-compute-engine) on Compute Engine to use as a network file system with NFSv3 and SMB3 capabilities.\n- [Mount a RAM disk](/compute/docs/disks/mount-ram-disks) within the VM memory that offers high throughput and low latency.\n\nTo compare block storage with the other storage options available in\nGoogle Cloud, such as Cloud Storage and Filestore,\nsee\n[Review the storage options](/architecture/storage-advisor#review_the_storage_options)\nin the Cloud Architecture Center.\n\nCost considerations\n\nYou're billed for the storage capacity provisioned from when you create\na volume until you delete the volume. This charge applies to Local SSD,\nPersistent Disk, and Hyperdisk.\n\nCosts continue to apply through the following scenarios:\n\n- Boot volumes that are created automatically when you create a compute instance\n- Durable storage volumes that are attached to a stopped or suspended instance\n- Durable storage volumes that aren't attached to any VM\n\nFor Hyperdisk and Extreme Persistent Disk volumes, you're\nbilled for the provisioned performance.\n\nFor example, since Hyperdisk ML volumes support customizing only throughput,\nyou're billed for the provisioned throughput for a Hyperdisk ML volume, but not\nfor the IOPS the volume uses.\n\nHowever, you're billed for the provisioned IOPS and throughput of Hyperdisk Balanced\nvolumes, because Hyperdisk Balanced volumes support configuring IOPS and throughput.\n\nFor more pricing information, see [Disk and image pricing](/compute/disks-image-pricing).\n\nWhat's next\n\n- View machine series availability for each storage option:\n\n - [Hyperdisk](/compute/docs/disks/hyperdisks#machine-type-support)\n - [Persistent Disk](/compute/docs/disks/persistent-disks#pd-machine-series)\n - [Local SSD](/compute/docs/disks/local-ssd#machine-series-lssd)\n- Learn more about each storage option:\n\n - [About Local SSD](/compute/docs/disks/local-ssd)\n - [About Hyperdisk](/compute/docs/disks/hyperdisks)\n - [About Persistent Disk](/compute/docs/disks/persistent-disks)\n- Learn how to use each storage option:\n\n - [Create a VM with Local SSD disks](/compute/docs/disks/add-local-ssd#create_local_ssd)\n - [Add a Hyperdisk volume to your VM](/compute/docs/disks/add-hyperdisk)\n - [Add a Persistent Disk volume to your VM](/compute/docs/disks/add-persistent-disk)\n\n- To learn about replication for Hyperdisk and Persistent Disk volumes, see [About synchronous disk replication](/compute/docs/disks/about-regional-persistent-disk)."]]
