>> Hey, everybody. Welcome back.
00:00
In this lesson we're going to be talking
00:00
about the advanced concepts
00:00
or some advanced concepts are
00:00
really not super-duper advanced,
00:00
but just some extra things that you want to note about.
00:00
You might see it on your exam, you might not.
00:00
But these two things are
00:00
EC2 Nitro and optimized EC2, your options for that.
00:00
EC2 Nitro, this here
00:00
is the next-generation platform for EC2 instances.
00:00
It's new stuff, not
00:00
the legacy stuff that we've been working on before.
00:00
This is the newer hypervisors service.
00:00
You get better security,
00:00
you get higher speed, more IOPS.
00:00
Just compare for the high-speed EBS with
00:00
nitro supports up to 64,000 EBS IOPS.
00:00
For legacy is only 32,
00:00
it's double rewrite speed for
00:00
data to the hard drives
00:00
that are connected in series in two instances.
00:00
This is going to be supported
00:00
by the EC2 instance families.
00:00
This currently still being developed and worked out,
00:00
but it's another option.
00:00
It's next-generation stuff.
00:00
Optimizing your CPU options.
00:00
You can customize your CPU configurations
00:00
with the number of CPU cores and the number of threads,
00:00
you have the ability to specify
00:00
this stuff during the launch.
00:00
These are just some things you might want to be aware of.
00:00
You may not see it on the exam.
00:00
I know when I took it, I didn't see it on the exam,
00:00
but always better to be safe than sorry.
00:00
You may see this.
00:00
Just be on the lookout for it.
00:00
Real quick one, I'm just wrapping it up here.
00:00
To summarize, we talked about
00:00
the concept of EC2 Nitro and what it is,
00:00
it's the new hypervisor for EC2
00:00
and it's twice as fast
00:00
as the legacy stuff that we had before.
00:00
We have the CPU optimization option,
00:00
which allows us to customize
00:00
the CPU configuration for instances.
00:00
That wraps up this one.
00:00
I'll see you all in the conclusion and then we'll
00:00
move on to the next module. See you there.
