            <h3 class="text-center">Features</h3>
            <p>So far, we have implemented a high performance block storage system, which supports snapshot, clone and recovery, and it can be attached to QEMU virtual machine or physical machine (by curve-nbd). CURVE has been served as an elastic block storage service inside NetEase for a certain time, during which high performance and reliability have shown.</p>
