Amazon EBS snapshots have which of the following two characteristics?
(Choose two.)
EBS snapshots only save incremental changes from snapshot to snapshot
EBS snapshots can be created in real-time without stopping an EC2 instance
EBS snapshots can only be restored to an EBS volume of the same size or smaller
EBS snapshots can only be restored and mounted to an instance in the same Availability Zone as the original EBS volume
Explanations:
EBS snapshots are incremental, meaning each snapshot only stores the changes since the last snapshot, reducing storage costs and improving efficiency.
EBS snapshots can be created while an EC2 instance is running without needing to stop the instance, ensuring minimal downtime.
EBS snapshots can be restored to a volume of the same size or larger, not just smaller, as long as the destination volume has enough space.
EBS snapshots are region-specific, not Availability Zone-specific, meaning they can be restored in any Availability Zone within the same region.
I map out that the answer is:
EBS snapshots only save incremental changes from snapshot to snapshot
Based on what I know, the answer is:
EBS snapshots only save incremental changes from snapshot to snapshot
