Whether throughput gives more performance than IOPS? If so is there min limit to use throughput

Question

Shruthi J · Accepted Answer

Throughput is better than IOPS for tasks that deal with large amount of data like big data processing. IOPS is better for tasks that need fast access to small files like databases. To use gp3 volumes for high throughput, the min size is 1GiB & for st1 volumes, the min limit is 500 GiB. You can increase throughput by changing the volume size or IOPS, but its most useful for tasks that need high data transfer speeds.
