Is it possible to use Local SSD Storage with Google Managed VMs? -

we're using managed vms, , can serve files local disk in vm (which standard magnetic hd), serving google cloud storage (which backed magnetic hds). https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/managed-vms/

as we're working large files (high-res geo images) in latency-sensitive context, we'd able use local ssds our managed vms app (it's okay data not persistent, needs fast , work large files). @ point, may want use other services fast , designed working large files (e.g. blobstore?), have workflow set work files should easiest set faster file system now. possible use local ssd storage managed vms?

here's info on local ssds. need created @ instance creation time (for google compute instances, managed vms creating behind scenes). looks local ssds can created via command line, gcloud compute, or api, it's not clear we'd configure of these things since managed vms doing instance creation us. presumably we'd in app.yaml, dockerfile, or in gcloud command, it's not obvious how work. https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/disks/local-ssd

apologies, isn't available. don't let customize vm specs, aside disk size. if max out disk size, highest iops support. kicked around idea of tmpfs, it's not available yet.
