Hi! Knowing that Machines is built on top of Firecracker, are there plans for supporting snapshotting a machine, restoring it at a later time, and/or cloning a snapshot to spawn new pre-heated machines? It looks like Machines currently can be stopped and restarted, but when they are they’re reboote…

Fly machine snapshot + restore?

Agreed.

And yeah, that’s planned for sometime this year™️ VM Snapshot vs Volume Snapshot - #3 by kurt
