AWS Cloud Development Kit - From Beginner to Professional - Improve EC2 Performance with EBS Provisioned IOPS SSD Volume

This video tutorial demonstrates how to launch an EC2 instance with additional EBS volumes, focusing on provisioned IOPS for enhanced performance. It covers the configuration of EC2 instances using AWS CDK, including device mapping and JSON configuration. The tutorial also explains how to set volume size and IOPS, and concludes with deploying and verifying the setup in AWS CloudFormation.

What are the two types of EBS volumes mentioned in the video?

• Basic and Advanced

• General Purpose and High Performance

• SSD and HDD

• Standard and Provisioned IOPS

What is the purpose of using provisioned IOPS in an EC2 instance?

• To reduce costs

• To increase storage capacity

• To enhance security

• To improve performance for spiky workloads

In the AWS CDK, what is used to override the default property of an instance?

• setInstanceProperty

• addPropertyOverride

• modifyInstance

• changeDefault

What is the typical device name format for mounting in Linux?

• /mnt/dev

• /dev/sdX

• /root/dev

• /linux/mount

What volume size is configured in the example provided in the video?

• 8GB

• 4GB

• 12GB

• 16GB

What happens when 'delete termination' is set to true?

• The instance is restarted

• The volume is deleted when the stack is deleted

• The volume is retained

• The instance is paused

How can you add more than one volume to an EC2 instance?

• By using a different AWS service

• By duplicating the block device mapping section

• By increasing the instance size

• By modifying the root volume
