When an EC2 EBS-backed (EBS root) instance is stopped, what happens to the data on any ephemeral store volumes?
Data will be deleted and win no longer be accessible
Data is automatically saved in an EBS volume.
Data is automatically saved as an EBS snapshot
Data is unavailable until the instance is restarted
Explanations:
Data on ephemeral store volumes (instance store) is lost when the instance is stopped. These volumes are temporary and not preserved when the instance is stopped.
Data on ephemeral store volumes is not automatically saved in an EBS volume. Only EBS volumes are preserved between stops and starts.
Data on ephemeral store volumes is not saved as an EBS snapshot. Snapshots are related to EBS volumes, not instance store volumes.
Data on ephemeral store volumes is not simply unavailable until the instance is restarted. It is deleted when the instance is stopped.
I judge that the answer is:
Data will be deleted and win no longer be accessible
