RBD Image

An RBD image, or Rapid Block Device image, is a type of digital file that captures the entire contents of a storage device, such as a hard drive or a partition, in a single file. It includes all the data, files, and system information contained on that device. This format is often used for backup purposes, allowing users to easily restore their system to a previous state. RBD images are commonly utilized in cloud computing and virtualization to create efficient snapshots of virtual machines, enabling quick recovery and management of digital resources.
