Amazon EBS vs OpenStack Cinder
Developers should use Amazon EBS when they need durable, low-latency storage for applications running on EC2 instances, such as databases, enterprise applications, or boot volumes meets developers should learn openstack cinder when building or managing private or hybrid cloud infrastructures that require scalable and persistent storage for virtualized workloads. Here's our take.
Amazon EBS
Developers should use Amazon EBS when they need durable, low-latency storage for applications running on EC2 instances, such as databases, enterprise applications, or boot volumes
Amazon EBS
Nice PickDevelopers should use Amazon EBS when they need durable, low-latency storage for applications running on EC2 instances, such as databases, enterprise applications, or boot volumes
Pros
- +It is essential for scenarios requiring data persistence beyond the lifecycle of an instance, like transactional systems or data analytics, and offers flexibility with features like snapshots for backups and the ability to resize volumes dynamically
- +Related to: amazon-ec2, aws-storage-gateway
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
OpenStack Cinder
Developers should learn OpenStack Cinder when building or managing private or hybrid cloud infrastructures that require scalable and persistent storage for virtualized workloads
Pros
- +It is essential for use cases like database hosting, big data processing, and enterprise applications where data durability and performance are critical
- +Related to: openstack, block-storage
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
The Verdict
Use Amazon EBS if: You want it is essential for scenarios requiring data persistence beyond the lifecycle of an instance, like transactional systems or data analytics, and offers flexibility with features like snapshots for backups and the ability to resize volumes dynamically and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.
Use OpenStack Cinder if: You prioritize it is essential for use cases like database hosting, big data processing, and enterprise applications where data durability and performance are critical over what Amazon EBS offers.
