‫So let's have a look at the AWS
‫Snow Family Service.
‫So from the console you can actually order
‫a Snow family device and you have to name your job,
‫for example, demo job.
‫So we need to choose a job type, so we can import data
‫into Amazon S3, which is the most common use case.
‫We can also export data from Amazon S3.
‫You can order a Snow device just for local compute
‫and storage only.
‫This gives you some kind of device
‫that server that can runs in a remote place
‫without being connected to the internet.
‫Or you can import virtual tapes
‫into the AWS storage gateway.
‫So we'll choose the first option, import into Amazon S3
‫and here we have several options for Snow devices.
‫So we have Snowcone, Snowcone SSD,
‫Snowball Edge Storage Optimized with 80 terabytes.
‫And then we have the compute optimized
‫and the compute optimized with GPUs.
‫So it's possible that AWS will add options over time
‫and may not rerecord this video.
‫So, that's fine.
‫I always cover what's at the exam, so, don't worry.
‫And so, as you can see, we have several options
‫and we seen the previous lecture,
‫the use case for each option
‫so, I won't go over them.
‫But this is a nice way to know where you're getting.
‫Okay, so let's say we go, for example
‫with a compute optimized Snowball Edge.
‫Then we need to choose a pricing option.
‫So we have on demand pricing, monthly pricing
‫or then commitment for one or three year period.
‫Then we have the storage types.
‫So it's an S3 data transfer
‫and then what AMI do we want to use on it?
‫So, this is a compute type of instance.
‫So we can actually load an AMI for example
‫this Amazon Linux 2 first, no family,
‫but you could create your own AMI to have your own
‫compute needs.
‫Then where do you want to load the data onto?
‫So, what S3 buckets are available to you?
‫I have this one right here
‫but you can create your own S3 buckets.
‫Next, we have several features and options we can use.
‫So we have IoT Greengrass for Snow to have IoT capability
‫on your Snow device, but it's not needed.
‫And then we can do remote device management
‫by using OpsHub or the Snowball Clients.
‫So I'll click on next
‫then what type of encryption do we want
‫on our Snowball device.
‫So, we have this encryption key right here where
‫you can create your own KMS key and encrypt it with that.
‫Then you need to grant access of course to Amazon S3 and SNS
‫to publish actions and to send data.
‫So you need to create a service role.
‫And then you need to add an address
‫so where you want to ship it, which country, which states
‫and so on, as well as the shipping speed
‫and the SNS notification for your job status changes.
‫And then you'll get the job summary.
‫So that's it, you've seen all the options for Snow devices
‫and the Snow family.
‫Remember, it's most commonly used to send data
‫into Amazon S3 and out of Amazon S3.
‫And this gives you remote compute capabilities.
‫We've seen also the different kind of devices
‫which are Snowcone, Snowball, and Snowmobile.
‫All right, that's it.
‫I hope you liked it and I will see you in the next lecture.
