Why we moved from AWS RDS to Postgres in Kubernetes

Thanks. If I'm reading this https://ibb.co/bNGmrCB correctly, it seems like we have plenty burst balance. Does this seem to indicate that provisioned IOPS is unlikely to help us here?

Yeah you're looking good though I would recommend adding a CloudWatch alert to make sure it doesn't sneak up on you. IIRC in general provisioned IOPS can help with other performance attributes like throughput so I would look at the differences documented by AWS and then take a look at all of the relevant metrics to be certain.

Oh interesting, thanks. So PIOPS may help even if we're not getting low on balance. Will dig into the docs some more. Thanks!
