Increase EBS volume size. I think you know very well concept of EBS in Aws. If you don’t know let’s have a brief introduction. EBS is stand for elastic block storage and this is also called persistent storage means this is type of storage that is attached with your ec2 instance permanently.

I think still you have doubt about EBS let’s understand in deep. There are many types of storage like S3, Glacier, EFS, Empirical, SAN, NAS etc, All these are type of storage that is not attached to your instance or server directly means these are the type of storage like storage data center that is connected to your server or instance via LAN cable or internet. But EBS is a permanent attached hardware storage of your EC2 instance.
