AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (CLF-C01)- Expand an EBS Volume -Lab

The video tutorial covers working with Elastic Block Store (EBS) volumes in AWS. It begins with an introduction to the AWS console and EBS, followed by steps to create and attach EBS volumes. The tutorial then explains disk management and provisioning of volumes, including expanding and modifying them. It concludes with a discussion on using snapshots and the lifecycle manager for effective EBS management.
