Answer / Prabhat Sagar

Elastic Block Store (EBS) is a service on AWS that provides persistent block-storage volumes for use with Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instances. EBS offers multiple volume types and sizes, providing various levels of IOPS (Input/Output Operations Per Second) and throughput for different workloads. To back up an EBS volume, you can create snapshots that are stored within an AWS region, and to improve performance, you can provision a larger volume or choose a volume type with higher IOPS.
