Amazon EBS (Elastic Block Store) Reviews

If the instance memory is too high, we must attach EBS volumes. I use the solution to attach and detach volumes.

The tool has different types of volumes, like SSD and HDD. We can attach multiple attachments to EBS volumes and Elastic Volumes. The tool has many features. We can integrate EBS with the EC2 instances manually through the Amazon portal.

The initial setup is not easy.

I used the solution six months ago.

The tool is stable.

It is difficult for freshers to set up the tool. We must understand the purpose and the requirements before we do the setup.

I am using Azure Storage.

For EFS, we mount some storage for the EC2 instance. There are many features in VPC, like internet gateway and NAT gateway. I will recommend the solution to others. Overall, I rate the product a nine out of ten.

We use EBS Elastic Block Store for data storage.

EBS can handle Apex, which helps us manage many issues. EBS is easy to use and has high performance.

There are limitations in sharing resources across multiple regions and availability zones. I recommend improving EBS by introducing multi-availability zone support to enhance its functionality. 

I have been using EBS Elastic Block Store for one year.

I rate its stability an eight out of ten.

I rate its scalability an eight out of ten.

We've used Google Cloud Storage in addition to Amazon EBS.

The initial setup is straightforward. The deployment takes around five seconds. I would rate it a nine out of ten.

I have utilized Amazon EBS in different ways, and it has worked very smoothly and perfectly. There have been no disruptions.

Amazon EBS offers features such as cloud migrations and different deployments, which are incredibly beneficial in moving data from on-premises to the cloud. The platform is stable and can be replicated across different availability zones and data centers.

There are no current recommendations for improvement. However, implementing more AI-based capabilities could enhance the service.

You need to pay additional costs for support. 

I rate Amazon EBS a ten out of ten. 

Amazon EBS is a storage system, and the storage is attached to the servers. If you are using multiple things like applications and DB inside a server, it needs much storage. The storage dependency is configured with Amazon EBS.

We can directly attach any of the servers. Since the file systems of different operating systems, like Linux and Windows, are different, we cannot merge them. It would be better to analyze and find a way to merge both the file systems of Linux and Windows.

Amazon EBS is a stable solution.

In our organization, we are using 50 to 70 servers and 10 to 50 RDS. Each and every database server has Amazon EBS.

The solution’s technical support is good.

The solution’s initial setup is easy.

Users should use Amazon EBS if they are going to configure anything at the Amazon server level.

Overall, I rate Amazon EBS ten out of ten.

At our company, we use it for data storage. We work on Cloud Clusters, so we use EBS as the underlying storage.

The most valuable feature is its scalability. I can easily scale the block from terabytes to gigabytes.

There are not many technical things that need improvement in EBS. It has a very long history and is AWS's first product. Its main flaw is the costliness.

I have been working with EBS for three years. 

EBS is stable. I have not seen any fluctuations when it comes to its stability. I would rate it a nine out of ten.

I would rate the scalability of EBS a nine out of ten.

I work with Amazon Web Service in the China region. I'm satisfied with how fast the technical team usually responds.

Positive

The initial setup is quite easy. I would give it a nine out of ten in terms of ease of use. It only takes a few minutes to deploy, sometimes even less.

We deploy EBS in two ways. One is on the AWS console where there are options to select from and we do that in a few clicks. Sometimes we create a virtual machine and then create EBS simultaneously because the AWS console provides options we can use. Another way is by using our own infrastructure as code/technology. We deploy EBS through our infrastructure codes, and then the EBS is deployed automatically. We have about 200 clients using EBS. Some of them are small, but most are enterprise businesses. 

The cost of using EBS is high compared to other cloud vendors such as Tencent Cloud or CARI Cloud. For example, the EBS standard storage and snapshot are relatively expensive. If we cannot maintain our snapshot policy in a good economic way, there will be extra costs. Some costs are generated immediately and some are likely to increase. If the price of snapshots keeps increasing, we might not be able to afford it anymore. In terms of costliness, I would rate it an eight out of ten.

My advice to people who are considering using EBS is to use the correct type according to your performance. If you want any additional features, you will have to pay more. You will need to deactivate or delete snapshots in order to avoid extra costs. You should monitor the performance as well. Overall, I would rate ETB an eight out of ten.
