What persists - Cool Computer Services

Your computer stays running until you delete it. Closing a browser tab or leaving a terminal keeps its disk and identity in place.

Writable disk

The complete writable disk persists. This includes code, installed packages, databases, configuration, and local state.

Identity

The computer keeps its name, name.cool.computer address, and name@mail.cool.computer inbox.

Configured service

The configured service keeps running after you disconnect. Requests to the public address reach its exposed HTTP port. If the process exits, inspect its logs and restart it with cool service restart bakery.

Deletion

Deleting a computer removes its identity and stored data. Back up files you need before deleting it. Read the current privacy policy for the published deletion and retention terms.
