  • Save image on Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) and use a web server running on Amazon EC2.
  • Save images on Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) and serve direct from Amazon S3.
  • Save images on Amazon Simple Storage Service- Infrequent Access (Amazon S3-IA) and serve direct from Amazon S3.
  • Save images on Amazon Glacier and serve direct Amazon Glacier.

  • Amazon ESB volumes can be encrypted transparently to workloads on the attached instance.
  • Data on an Amazon EBS Volume is lost when the attached instance is stopped.

You need to take a snapshot of an Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volume. How long will the volume be unavailable?

  • It depends on the provisioned size of the volume.
  • The volume will be available immediately.
  • It depends on the amount of data stored on the volume.
