Convoy is a Docker volume plugin written in Go that manages persistent container volumes across multiple storage back-ends such as Device Mapper, NFS/VFS, and Amazon EBS. It supports snapshots, backups, restores, and volume migration or sharing between hosts, and can be deployed as a standalone binary.
Use cases
- manage persistent volumes for docker containers
- snapshot and back up docker volumes
- migrate docker volumes between hosts
- share docker volumes across multiple hosts
- restore a docker volume from a previous backup
- schedule periodic snapshots of container volumes
When to choose
- you run Docker 1.8+ on Linux and need persistent volumes with snapshot/backup support on Device Mapper, NFS, or EBS back-ends
- you need to migrate or share container volumes between hosts
When to avoid
- you use a modern Docker or Kubernetes environment - the project is unmaintained since 2021 and Docker now has built-in volume plugins and CSI drivers
- you need support for storage back-ends beyond Device Mapper, VFS/NFS, or EBS
- you need production support or recent security fixes
