#2Block Storage

○●○

Amazon EBSElastic Block Store

Ephemeral storage is on every EC2 instance

Amazon EBSParticularly suited for applications that require

a database, file system, or access to raw block

level storage.

Can be attached to a running instance

Network attached persistent block level storage volumes

EBS Drives can be moved between instances

How do our customers use EBS?

Enterprises

Enterprise workloads are built

on block storageOracle, SAP,

Microsoft

Gaming customers

Very high performance

databases.500,000 IOPS for a new game launch

Social Network /

Mobile Apps

Very high performance and consistent I/O for

NoSQL and relational DBs

Marketing / Analytics

High performance I/O databases

Multiple drives on one Amazon EC2 instance

10GB Ú 1TB

Provisioned IOPSAmazon EBS

Provisioned IOPSP-IOPS is designed to run transactional

applications that require high and

consistent I/O

Workloads on Provisioned IOPs

Use Cases

Relational Databases

NoSQL Databases (eg MongoDB)

High Performance File Systems

Enterprise Workloads (eg CRM, MS Exchange, ERP)

Provisioned IOPS- For steady I/O use Provisioned IOPS

- For bursty I/O, run the numbers

Optimized for price/performance

EBS SnapshotsAmazon EBS

EBS Snapshots- Snapshots from EBS are stored in Amazon

S3- Rollback to a previous version- Can be copied between regions

EBS Snapshots – Stored in Amazon S3

USE AMAZON EBSWHEN YOU NEED:

Filesystem for an instanceNTFS, ExtFS, RAID, LVM…

Long-term persistent storage

Data changes frequently

Access to raw, unformatted block-level storage

#3Connecting AWS Storage to On-

Premise Environments○○●

AWS Storage GatewayConnecting with on-premise

AWS Storage Gateway- Low latency access to frequently accessed data- Minimise the need to scale out on-premise

storage- Snapshots allow access to old data

Up to 150TBs supported from a single Storage Gateway

Extend your on-premise storage

USE AWS STORAGE GATEWAYWHEN YOU NEED:

Synchronize data for disaster recovery

Departmental fileshare

Backup your data

Oracle Secure Backup Module

Oracle Secure Backup (OSB) Cloud

Module allows customers to backup

Oracle Databases directly to Amazon S3

using the Oracle Recovery Manager

(RMAN)

Backup Oracle into Amazon S3

Restore times reduced from 15

to 2½ hours

Took less that 1 hour to configure

per database

Offered significant improvements in

durability of backups
