Abstract
The last chapter focused on the architecture and components of a CMS website. I discussed that one of the main components that you need to plan for is static content and application file storage. In this chapter, you'll go over your options for using AWS S3 for storing your static and dynamic files. You'll also learn about EC2 EBS (Elastic Block Storage) and how it can be attached to your virtual server instance but can persist even if the virtual service instance goes away. Having data on EC2 EBS storage enables some storage and server management, such as being able to move storage between virtual server instances and creating snapshot backups of your website data.
