Some Important Note

                                         Amazon S3 Storage Class Infrequent Access Amazon S3 Standard - Infrequent Access:- Key Features:- low latency and high throughput performance Designed for durability of 99.999999999% of objects Designed for 99.9% availability over a given year Backed with the Amazon S3 Service Level Agreement for availability Supports SSL encryption of data in transit and at rest Lifecycle management for automatic migration of objects Standard - IA (Infrequent Access) offers the high durability, throughput, and low latency of Amazon S3 Standard, with a low per GB storage price and per GB retrieval fee. It is Storage Class of when we require access data then it provide rapid access. This combination of low cost and high performance make Standard - IA ideal for long-term storage, backups, and as a data store for disaster recovery. The Standard - IA storage class is set at the object level and can exist in the same bucket as S

There are four method which AWS mentioned in their Doc. Delete From Console. Use third party tool or AWS CLI. Use lifecycle policy.           i)   Delete From Console :- Deleting from console only work when bucket contain less than 100,000 objects but our bucket contain more than 100,000 object.           ii)    Use third party tool or AWS CLI :-  Can use s3cmd for deleting bucket which is a third party tool. We use AWS CLI provided by AWS.                        Run  this command  e.g:-                            AWS s3 rb s3://<bucket-name>  --force                             AWS s3 rm s3://<bucket-name>  --recursive                 The first command is used for delete object and as well as bucket also.  It create delete marker object if we have versioning enable for bucket. So only use this command when bucket doesn't have versioning enable because it delete only current version, not previous version and create delete marker file/objec

This post is just related to how can you take snapshot/backup of your AWS  ec2 instance's volume using boto. Two method is their:- (which we can use) 1. Cron Method 2. Check time difference between last snapshot creation time and current time. 1. Cron method:- Two cron method (C1 ,C2 two cron)                     i)C1 runs every hour, 5th minute                        Picks up the current hour, say CHOUR                        Pick up volumes defined with backup in hours(2_hour,4_hour ... etc)                         Take 2,4 as frequency accordingly                        if(CHOUR%freq)==0 Take snapshot                      ii)C2 runs every day, 12th hour                        Pick up the current day, say CDAY                        Pick up volumes defined with backup in days(1_day,7_day ... etc)                        Take 1,7 as frequency accordingly                        if(CDAY%freq)==0 Take snapshot Pseudo Code:-           i) Make co
