In EC2, what happens to the data in an instance store if an instance reboots (either intentionally or unintentionally)?
Data is partially present in the instance store.
Data persists in the instance store.
Data is deleted from the instance store for security reasons.
Data in the instance store will be lost.
Explanations:
Data is not partially preserved in the instance store during a reboot. Instance store data is lost upon instance reboot.
Data does not persist in the instance store. It is ephemeral and is lost on instance reboot.
While security is a concern, data is not deleted specifically for security reasons; it is lost because the instance store is temporary.
Data in the instance store is ephemeral, and it is lost during a reboot (intentional or unintentional).
If I had to guess, I’d say the answer is:
Data in the instance store will be lost.
