Amazon Web Services provides scalable cloud computing resources including Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) virtual servers, Simple Storage Service (S3) object storage, and Elastic Block Store (EBS) volumes. EC2 allows launching virtual servers as needed and attaching EBS volumes for block-level storage. S3 provides scalable storage for files up to 5 GB. EBS volumes can be attached to EC2 instances for primary storage and snapshots are used to back up EBS volumes to S3 for incremental backups.

3. Amazon Elastic Compute
Cloud (Amazon EC2)
 provides scalable computing capacity in
the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud
 eliminates your need to invest in hardware
up front
 Able to launch as many or as few virtual
servers as you need, configure security
and networking, and manage storage
 enables you to scale up or down to
handle changes in requirements

4.  Features of Amazon EC2
 Virtual computing environments, known as
instances
 Preconfigured templates for your instances,
known as Amazon Machine Images (AMIs)
 Secure login information for your instances
using key pairs
 Persistent storage volumes for your data
using Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon
EBS)

5. S3 Bucket
 Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service) is a scalable,
high-speed, low-cost web-based service designed
for online backup and archiving of data and
application programs
 It allows to upload, store, and download any type
of files up to 5 GB in size
 The subscriber has control over the accessibility of
data, i.e. privately/publicly accessible.
 Amazon Simple Storage Service is storage for the
Internet.
 It is designed to make web-scale computing
easier for developers.

6. Amazon EBS Volumes
 durable, block-level storage device that you
can attach to a single EC2 instance
 Used as primary storage for data that requires
frequent updates, such as the system drive for
an instance or storage for a database
application
 For current-generation volumes attached to
current-generation instance types, you can
dynamically increase size, modify provisioned
IOPS capacity, and change volume type on
live production volumes
 provides the following volume types: General
Purpose SSD (gp2), Provisioned IOPS SSD (io1),
Throughput Optimized HDD (st1), Cold HDD
(sc1), and Magnetic (standard, a previous-
generation type)

7. Amazon EBS Snapshots
 back up the data on your Amazon EBS
volumes to Amazon S3 by taking point-in-time
snapshots
 Snapshots are incremental backups, which
means that only the blocks on the device that
have changed after your most recent
snapshot are saved
 minimizes the time required, create the
snapshot and saves on storage costs by not
duplicating data
 When you delete a snapshot, only the data
unique to that snapshot is removed
 Each snapshot contains all of the information
needed to restore your data.

8.  On creation, new volume begins as an
exact replica of the original volume that
was used to create the snapshot
 replicated volume loads data lazily in the
background
 If you access data that hasn't been
loaded yet, the volume immediately
downloads the requested data from
Amazon S3
