Editor's Notes

  • #4 As I mentioned earlier, we EC2 stands for Elastic Compute Cloud. We have racks of EC2 servers deployed across all of our regions, with each AWS regions consisting of multiple availability zones or AZs as we call then, and each AZ is typically multiple data centers. Within these racks, we have sometimes dozens of servers that each contain Processors, Memory, Networking and sometime local storage. As part of the EC2 stack, we have an hypervisor that partitions these resources, in to virtual machines or guests, which we call as an EC2 instance.
  • #5 EBS is a distributed system. Your EBS volume is a logical volume comprised of MANY PHYSICAL DEVICES. Because it’s a service distributed across many physical devices, this allows EBS to deliver better performance and durability than if we were simply mapping Volume -> Disk Gp2: General Purpose SSD io1: Provisioned IOPS SSD st1: Throughput Optimized HDD sc1: Cold HDD Snapshots First time you take snapshot, every modified block is copied to S3 Subsequent snapshots are incremental and only changed blocks are backed up Deleting a snapshot only removes data exclusive to that snapshot Point-in-time backup of modified volume blocks Stored in S3, accessed via EBS APIs Subsequent snapshots are incremental Deleting snapshot will only remove data exclusive to that snapshot Crash consistent
