Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS) is a block-level storage service provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS) that enables you to create persistent block-level storage volumes and attach them to Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instances. EBS volumes are highly available, durable, and scalable, and provide consistent performance for I/O-intensive workloads.
EBS volumes are designed to be used with EC2 instances and can be easily attached or detached from instances as needed. This makes it easy to create and manage storage volumes for your EC2 instances. You can create EBS volumes in different sizes and types to meet your storage requirements.
There are different types of EBS volumes available, such as
General Purpose SSD (GP2),
Provisioned IOPS SSD (io1),
Throughput Optimized HDD (st1), and Cold HDD (sc1).
Each of these types has different performance characteristics and pricing, allowing you to choose the most suitable volume for your workload.
EBS volumes are an essential component of many AWS services, including EC2 instances, Relational Database Service (RDS), and Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS).
