Finally, a good explanation of the difference between block level storage and object level storage. A simple concept, but so hard to find. Thanks!

[southern_smacker]

Brilliant. In just 9 minutes of video you explained core concepts and core diference between S3, EBS and EFS. Hats Off !!!

[viratgajjar]

The way you have explained every aws topics with ease is mind blowing!!

[fsfernandes]

You are one the person making the concepts very very simple even a child can understand. Keep it up. Simple things everyone likes.

[santanudutta]

I have been trying to find out the exact reasons for opting for EBS in contrast to S3. Your explanation has made it crystal clear. Thanks a lot. I do appreciate your effort in helping learners like me.

[Ninjago_Energy]

Best explanation ever for block storage and object storage, seriously mind blowing.

[musheershaikhind]

I am watching it in 2021 and the information given in the video is still relevant and by far is the best explanation I came across the YouTube. thank you for explaining EBS and EFS in a simple and effective way

[rangeshvenkatesan]

I am the horse man, hello, this explanation is very professional, the example of the excel file is very helpful and this is the only one video online I found that has this very important concept explained. Thanks.

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:

02:30 💾 Block level storage works at the block level for efficient read and write operations. Object level storage, like S3, requires rewriting the whole object even for small changes.
04:22 📥 S3 is great for continuous ingestion, static asset storage, and backup, but not suitable for hosting OS or database files due to object storage limitations.
05:54 💽 EBS is best for use with EC2 instances, offering high performance, persistence, and various performance levels based on need.
07:46 🌐 EFS is an elastic network file system that can be mounted on multiple EC2 instances, making it suitable for shared storage across instances within the same region.
08:54 ⚖️ S3 and EFS automatically scale with data, while EBS requires careful sizing. Understanding these options helps optimize storage choices in AWS.

I am a beginner, this is one of the best explanation that i have came across.
Please share videos with real time scenarios, it would be much helpful.
Thanks for posting.

[DavidGagliano]

I've watched this several times and appreciate the clear explanation. Very helpful, THANK YOU!

[ramkumarch]

I have been using EBS, S3, and EFS but did not know how actually storage works Great video, covered basic stuff like how data is stored and what happens when you do changes. you are really cool and fantastic! Thanks much for sharing this, Please do the videos on Terraform and Ansible if this is something you can do.

[manishakkalwar]

I found it very helpfull for me. Its very good explanation sir. Thanks a lot.

[revanthsrinivas]

Very Clear Explanation for Block and Object Storage. Cleared my Doubts

[mathewkargarzadeh]

Excellent illustration of EFS !!! which is pretty much a network filesystem that you can use as NFS file system on all the availability zones within the region. There is something you mentioned which need to be noted. and it is the size of the EFS file system which there is no need to set the size. I very much like the way you explained the AWS storage subject. Please keep up the good work which is benefiting all of us. I will look forward to see more youtube from you. Appreciated !!

[IamOnlyaHumanafterall]

best explanation and simple explanation to get the concept rooted into your mind, heart and every possible nerve ;) great job !

[ashishshrivastava]

Excellent explanation and crystal clear differentiation between these 3 storage options, Thanks a lot.

[rupn]

Great explanation! Understood S3 and EBS clearly. Why EFS is not clear yet. Why do we need it if we already have S3
