This is the first cloud computing video that I have seen that is credible and easy to follow.

[@GoCloudArchitects]

Thank you. We work hard to make cloud computing simple.

[@bretthowden3706]

Description of EBS, S3 and EFS was extremely helpful

[@GoCloudArchitects]

Thank you very much.

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:00 🤖 Introduction to differences between AWS S3, EBS, and EFS storage options. 01:02 🛡️ EBS (Elastic Block Storage) provides high-performance, non-volatile storage for AWS instances; different from instance storage. 02:28 💼 EBS options include provisioned IOPS, general purpose SSDs, throughput optimized volumes, and cold hard drives. 04:52 🤖 S3 (Amazon Simple Storage Service) is object storage with high availability and durability; suitable for backups, content distribution, static hosting, and more. 06:19 🌐 S3 has diverse use cases, including data backup, virtual machine images, static website hosting, content distribution, and disaster recovery planning. 07:19 💻 EFS (Elastic File System) is high-performance network storage suitable Made with HARPA AI

Very nice explanation. I was doing the course on Udemy but i didn't quite understand the differences between EBS,S3 and EFS. After watching your video, i now fully understand their differences. Thanks once again!

[@GoCloudArchitects]

Thank you. We also had a free AWS solutions architect course on our channel. That should help clear up things other things for you. We have been architects for decades and a big part of our job is explaining technology so we really try to make the technology and how it works easy to understand.

Lets get into container security and how machine learning can be used in security.

[@MereAYT]

I was caught off guard on the exam by a question asking for a shared, high-throughput block storage cloud device that could be attached to more than one EC2 instance. I saw block storage and immediately thought EBS, but then I was like "No, it must be EFS because EBS is like SAN and only attaches to one instance, while EFS is like NAS and can attach to many at the same time. Maybe EFS can do block storage too?" But then I got home and learned that EBS Multi-Attach existed. :/ Those questions are tough.

[@GoCloudArchitects]

Block and file storage are very different Block storage is actually quite low performance compared to datacenter speeds or NVME speeds An NVME drive for 300 dollars provides a million IOPS. An IO1 ebs volume can do 16k IOPS. But block storage is our fastest option in the cloud. Now we can take a server, mount block storage and create an NFS or SMB share This would enable multiple systems to share the “block storage” This would create a file server EFS is just a managed file server for when multiple systems need to access the same files at the same time.

[@MereAYT]

@@GoCloudArchitects Thank you for the explanation! I am still learning and I appreciate the guidance.

Awesome explanation/breakdown. Currently studying for my cloud practitioner and this definitely helped clear up the difference storage solutions.

Great info !!!!!!

Thank you very much.

[@cowardtopower]

Maybe a live tutorial? showing how to create a s3 bucket via CLI and the GUI? Great video!

[@GoCloudArchitects]

Jordan. Great suggestion! We will happily do that in the future. As for now there is a massive gap in the cloud architect community. In that most of the AWS certifications teach how to configure AWS services but they don’t teach how the cloud works. So for the near term we are trying to help all the CSA-A, CSA-P develop a level of competency and cloud knowledge so they will be employable. As soon as we can help the community get more job ready we will start producing more AWS specific videos. Love the idea and we will definitely do at some point in the future.

What cloud computing topics would you like to learn more about? Please comment below.

[@petercallas4143]

Fundamental information for IT professionals to learn about cloud computing and certifications.

[@bretthowden3706]

Cloud computing training videos that focus on essential concepts.

[@GoCloudArchitects]

@@petercallas4143 Peter thats the plan. We will be having new cloud computing training videos every week.

[@GoCloudArchitects]

@@bretthowden3706 We will definitely have more coming soon. Next week we have a video on AWS S3.

[@uditsharma5943]

If we have two subnets one is public and another one is private now I want to access ec2 which is in a private subnet from the public subnet but without public IP could you please make a video on the above scenario?

[@bnssoftware3292]

I think your description of S3 object storage is a bit off. You mention that it breaks up a file into many objects, each with their own ID. This describes block storage. I think what you meant to say is it stores EACh file as a single object with it's own ID.

[@GoCloudArchitects]

Block storage breaks date into blocks. Object storage breaks data into objects. Dell EMC and IBM can give you more information on this if you desire.

[@Fabrice_Quentin]

Do you think that it is possible to prepare and pass the Architect Professional Certification without experience as an aws architect or engineer ?

[@GoCloudArchitects]

Of course. Anyone can pass the exam with or without experience

[@NickDoddTV]

@@GoCloudArchitects But please keep these videos up! They are super helpful! Thank you so much!

[@seventhson2178]

Why nobody explain that EFS=Linux NFS? EBS=iSCSI? WHY??? This is the simple explanation for the guys who have experience and it helps to understand it better.

[@GoCloudArchitects]

I completely agree with you. It’s so critical to know the actual technology not marketing names. So I completely agree with you. That’s why we have free AWS certification courses on this channel. Where we discuss the actual technology in addition to the vendors terminology.
