Add EBS details for RDS #679

Closed EverettBerry closed 1 year ago

This info is available here https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/ebs-optimized.html

Add EBS info as a column on the RDS tab.

Thank you! DB instance IOPS can be a major performance characteristic to differentiate performance, as the guide above goes into detail about. For some applications this may be a stronger indicator of performance/$ than vCPUs or memory -- IO is the backbone of accessing data. Additionally AWS puts this information separate/fairly deep which makes it all the more valuable for an Vantage to make this accessible.

All of the columns (Baseline bandwidth (Mbps) | Maximum bandwidth (Mbps) | Baseline throughput (MB/s, 128 KiB I/O) | Maximum throughput (MB/s, 128 KiB I/O) | Baseline IOPS (16 KiB I/O) | Maximum IOPS (16 KiB I/O)) are valuable. Being able to understand each of these in a per/$ view would also be ideal.

Thanks for these details. I was just talking with the postgres.ai folks about the importance of IOPS for optimal RDS performance.

@cameron-dunn-sublime so just to clairfy: if these columns from the EC2 tab were available on the RDS tab that would satisfy this ask? image

Hey @EverettBerry, thanks yes! Sorry I never saw this and then just came back to look at this (almost a year later) and saw your response 🎉
