1. The document discusses AWS storage options including object storage with Amazon S3 and Amazon Glacier, and block storage with Amazon EBS. 2. It provides examples of how customers like SmugMug, Spotify, Nasdaq, and Shazam use AWS storage for applications, content delivery, archiving, and analytics. 3. The document also discusses using AWS storage options like S3, Glacier and Storage Gateway to connect on-premises storage with AWS cloud storage for applications like backup, disaster recovery and data migration.

58. IOPS
Provisioned

59. Workloads on EBS Provisioned IOPS
P-IOPS is designed to run transactional applications that require high and
consistent IO such as:
• Relational databases
• NoSQL databases (e.g. MongoDB)
• High performance file systems
• Productivity applications (e.g. Microsoft Exchange)
• Enterprise applications (e.g. CRM, ERP)

60. EBS
Snapshots

61. Take snapshots of EBS volumes and keep them in S3

62. Use Amazon EBS When You Need
• Filesystem for an instance NTFS, ExtFS, RAID, LVM
• Long-term persistent storage
• Ability to change data frequently
• Access to raw, unformatted block-level storage

S3 & Glacier - Designed to work with other AWS Services

68. Storage Gateway – Connect On-Prem with the AWS Cloud
1. Local, low-latency access to the
most frequently used files while
storing all data in Amazon S3
(Cached-Volumes)
Or
2. Scheduled off-site backups to
Amazon S3 for on-premises data
(Stored-Volumes)

69. Use AWS Storage Gateway When You Need To
• Backup your data
• Synchronize data
• Export data for migration
• Set up a departmental fileshare
• Conduct simple disaster recovery
