| == Configuring Snapshot Directory |
| |
| By default, a segment of the snapshot is stored in the work directory of a respective Ignite node. This segment uses the |
| same storage media where Ignite Persistence keeps data, index, WAL, and other files. Since the snapshot can consume as much space as |
| already taken by the persistence files and can affect your applications' performance by sharing the disk I/O with the |
| Ignite Persistence routines, it's suggested to store the snapshot and persistence files on different media. |
| |
| You can avoid this interference between Ignite Native persistence and snapshotting |
| by either changing link:persistence/native-persistence#configuring-persistent-storage-directory[storage directories of the persistence files] |
| or overriding the default snapshots' location as shown below: |
