Filesystem is a high-performance, persistent storage solution for containers and bare metal servers on the Latitude.sh platform. It provides scalable storage that ensures data is retained across reboots, making it ideal for workloads requiring long-term data management and flexibility. The Filesystem is optimized for fast access and seamless integration, offering a reliable way to manage data-intensive applications.
It is not possible to reduce the size of an existing filesystem. You can only expand it.
