AWS PrivateLink connects your AWS services with other AWS services through a private tunnel.
- PrivateLink secures data shared with cloud-based applications by eliminating the exposure of data to the public Internet.
- PrivateLink allows access to AWS Services in a highly available way while keeping all the network traffic within the AWS network.
[AWS] Elastic File System (EFS)
Elastic File System (EFS) is a scalable managed service that implements the Network File System (NFSv4).
- File systems can be mounted on multiple Linux instances at the same time. -> shared media, home folder, shared documents.
- It can be accessed in the VPC, across the VPC, and even from outside of VPC through Direct Connect.
- EFS is built to scale while maintaining low latency and high throughput. It can support thousands of current NFS connections.
- EFS is a regional service that stores data across multiple AZs for high availability and durability.
- EFS supports Read after Write consistency.
[AWS] Elastic Block Store (EBS)
Elastic Block Store (EBS) is a network-attached storage service that creates and manages persistent volumes.
- Volumes are persistent (removed and attached) and are replicated within a single AZ.
- You can change the EBS volume size and the storage type on the fly.
- EBS supports a maximum per-instance throughput of 1,750 MiB/s.
- EBS supports 80,000 IOPS per instance or 64,000 IOPS per volume.
- By default, EBS volumes are replicated within the AZ.
[AWS] EC2 – Storage Options
- Every EC2 instance must have a root volume, which may or may not be EBS (Elastic Block Store).
- By default, an EBS root volume will be deleted when the instance is terminated. You can change the setting to make EBS volumes persistent.
- You can attach additional EBS volumes to instances, and they are not deleted when the instance is terminated.
[AWS] EC2 – Instance Types
An Instance Type determines a particular set of features and sizes (hardware components) that decide the level of workload – Compute Power (vCPU), Memory, Storage Options, Network Performance.

AWS provides various purchasing options for users to optimize their costs based on their needs. On-demand is the base option. You can pay just for what you use. But you can get a discount by reserving instances for a set of periods.
