Storage

The Seq Docker container stores configuration and log events in its /data directory. For this directory to survive container restarts, it needs to be mapped to a persistent volume using -v on the command-line, as in the Docker Deployment Overview.

Seq is an IO-heavy workload, so the persistent volume used should be equivalent to local disk storage, for example an Azure Disks VHD or an AWS EBS volume.

🚧

Only one running Seq container can access a storage volume concurrently: it's not possible to run two or more container instances pointing to the same storage.
