Amazon EC2 - Automatic Restore Snapshot -


i'm looking setup demo environment in amazon consists of pre-configured ec2 image resets snapshot configuration every hour, linux vm.

what best way go doing in ec2? amazon offer tools scheduling , reverting snapshot or need done third party vm or software?

there no vmware-like 'snapshot' functionality in amazon ec2 (where can roll-back point-in-time).

the network-attached disk storage system used amazon ec2 called amazon elastic block store (ebs). while ebs does have 'snapshot' function, takes backup of ebs volume , stores in amazon s3. snapshot can used create new ebs volume, contain same contents original disk @ time snapshot created.

one option launch new amazon ec2 instance, automatically create new boot disk indicated amazon machine image (ami). way launch new machines same disk content. however, might not lend "revert every half hour" since requires new machine started, trigger new hourly billing cycle.

you might able script deletion of files or reload of database tables, depend upon particular system , applications.
