EC2 Storage Explained | EBS vs EFS vs Instance Store

In this video, we’ll break down the three main storage options you can use with EC2: Amazon EBS, Instance Store, and Amazon EFS. You’ll learn how EBS provides durable, resizable block storage that persists beyond your instance’s lifecycle, why Instance Store is lightning-fast but temporary, and how EFS enables scalable, shared file storage across multiple EC2 instances. By the end, you’ll understand which option fits best for workloads like databases, temporary caches, shared file systems, and more—so you can make smarter decisions for your applications in the cloud.
