My production EC2 instance (Linux) has become unusable and I need it brought back online quickly and safely. The immediate priority is to recover all databases plus the critical file and directory structure; however, if the damage proves deeper, I am open to doing a full-system restore instead of just a data-only recovery. You will need to evaluate the current snapshots, AMIs, and any available backups, then advise whether a point-in-time data restore will suffice or if we should spin up a brand-new instance and perform a full system restoration. Key expectations • Recover databases as well as file/directory data without loss or corruption. • Verify application services start correctly on the restored instance. • Document each step so future rollbacks or disaster-recovery drills are straightforward. AWS Console, CLI, and Linux sysadmin skills are essential; knowledge of snapshot management, EBS volume attachment, and possible use of AWS Backup or third-party tools will make this go faster. Once everything is restored and validated, I’ll take care of the final DNS or load-balancer switch-over.

Before we could think about restoring the data/server i believe it is mandatory to investigate what went wrong and why/how the server became unusable so that we can prevent this from happening after the restoration is done. Also one of my key focus will be brining back the same server to live if possible if the problem is not severe enough.
