Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a data snapshot method and apparatus, a computer device and a storage medium. The method includes: acquiring the capacity of to-be-written data after snapshot, and comparing the capacity of the to-be-written data with a preset capacity; when the capacity of the to-be-written data is greater than or equal to the preset capacity, writing the to-be-written data into a snapshot volume in a Redirect On Write manner; when the capacity of the to-be-written data is less than the preset capacity, writing the to-be-written data into a solid state drive in a Redirect On Write manner; and when a background write-back thread detects that there is data writing into the solid state drive, writing corresponding data in a source volume into the snapshot volume in a Copy On Write manner, and writing the to-be-written data in the solid state drive into the source volume.
