There are two different ways of setting up a redundant MySQL database on Amazon EC2.  In both cases, there will be a Master-DB and Slave-DB with replication for failover and recovery.  The core difference between each setup is how the backups are saved. 

  • MySQL-S3 Setup - Backups of the database are saved directly to S3.
  • MySQL-EBS Setup - Backups of the database are saved as EBS snapshots to S3.  See Overview of MySQL-EBS Setups for more details.
