With AWS EBS Snapshot Manager, service providers and application administrators can quickly and easily create a snapshot schedule through a user-friendly, web-based GUI that automates taking snapshots of one or more AWS EC2 instances. This automation eliminates the need to write complex scripts, thereby reducing development time, management requirements and other resources. Management of EC2 instances with automated functionality such as restore, copy, delete, migration between regions, start, stop, launch and the ability to delete snapshots on the fly results in financial and time savings.

With support for AWS EBS snapshots on EC2 instances, the company provides the broadest end-to-end enterprise data protection across physical, virtual, cloud and mobile computing environments.
