// Package ebs provides the API client, operations, and parameter types for Amazon
// Elastic Block Store.
//
// You can use the Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) direct APIs to create
// Amazon EBS snapshots, write data directly to your snapshots, read data on your
// snapshots, and identify the differences or changes between two snapshots. If
// you’re an independent software vendor (ISV) who offers backup services for
// Amazon EBS, the EBS direct APIs make it more efficient and cost-effective to
// track incremental changes on your Amazon EBS volumes through snapshots. This can
// be done without having to create new volumes from snapshots, and then use Amazon
// Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instances to compare the differences. You can
// create incremental snapshots directly from data on-premises into volumes and the
// cloud to use for quick disaster recovery. With the ability to write and read
// snapshots, you can write your on-premises data to an snapshot during a disaster.
// Then after recovery, you can restore it back to Amazon Web Services or
// on-premises from the snapshot. You no longer need to build and maintain complex
// mechanisms to copy data to and from Amazon EBS. This API reference provides
// detailed information about the actions, data types, parameters, and errors of
// the EBS direct APIs. For more information about the elements that make up the
// EBS direct APIs, and examples of how to use them effectively, see Accessing the
// Contents of an Amazon EBS Snapshot (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/ebs-accessing-snapshot.html)
// in the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud User Guide. For more information about the
// supported Amazon Web Services Regions, endpoints, and service quotas for the EBS
// direct APIs, see Amazon Elastic Block Store Endpoints and Quotas (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/ebs-service.html)
// in the Amazon Web Services General Reference.
