title: EBS for storing databases vs. website files
body: <p>I spent the day experimenting with AWS for the first time. I've got an EC2 instance running and I mounted an Elastic Block Store (EBS) to keep the MySQL databases.</p>
  
  <p>Does it make sense to also put my web application files on the EBS, or should I just deploy them to the normal EC2 file system?</p>
