I've always been taught that it's practical to partition your disk using LVM
, where each partition is given to a specific directory, e.g (/var
, /opt
, /home
, /usr
and /tmp
).
However, I'm now looking at an environment in the cloud (OCI) where such schema is not used. The only thing that exists is an own partition for /boot/efi
, /boot
and /
(root).
This made me think: Shouldn't such practice be applied in the cloud?
I do not know the answer to this and would like the thoughts of people with far more experience than myself.
