What do you mean by instance store volume and how it is different than ebs...

Answer / Deenanath Ram

An Instance Store Volume is a type of block storage that is physically attached to an EC2 instance. It provides persistent, raw block-level access to the instance's local disk. Unlike Elastic Block Store (EBS), Instance Store Volumes do not persist beyond the life of the instance and are deleted when the instance is stopped or terminated. However, they offer better performance since data doesn't travel over a network.
