AWS Tech Tales | S4 E2 | The Tale of App Consistent Snapshots
What's the difference between crash consistent snaps and app consistent ones?
Episode Summary
By default EBS snapshots are crash consistent, meaning they represent the state of the volume at the time the snapshot was created. However, if you're running a Database on EC2 you want to take a snapshot that is application consistent in order to take pending transactions into account. In this episode we'll talk about snapshot best practices and demo how to ensure your snapshots are application consistent!
