EBS fault tolerance across Availability Zones












0















Reading through the description of EBS at https://aws.amazon.com/ebs/features/, I understand that EBS is replicated across servers of the same availability zone.



What happens if an entire AZ becomes inaccessible? Does EBS have a feature for replicating to other AZs in the same region?



Regards,

Yash

          Short answer: no, you can't replicate EBS volumes to other AZ



          However you can create EBS snapshots that don't belong to any AZ because they are stored on S3. This can even be automated since AWS released DLM in july.
