AWS EBS gp3 Volumes

Please add support for the newly announced and already generally available AWS EBS feature. [1] The top capability is: "The new gp3 volumes deliver a baseline performance of 3,000 IOPS and 125 MB/s at any volume size. Customers looking for higher performance can scale up to 16,000 IOPS and 1,000 MB/s for an additional fee." [2] That basically means decoupling storage performance from storage size. It would eliminate all our IOPS pain as 3000k is more than enough for our usecase. Currently, we are slightly overprovisioning storage size in order to guarantee minimal IOPS performance.

    Nice, looks good! Thanks so much! I also noticed that IOPS are prorated for lower cluster tiers atm. M10: 1000 IOPS M20: 2000 IOPS M30+: 3000 IOPS

    Good news folks: Atlas now offers baseline IOPS perf on AWS of 3000 IOPS for new clusters! This capability will be introduced for pre-existing clusters over the next few weeks.

    Ya, this is a no brainer. We're also over provisioned just to get the extra IOPS. There's no reason to not support GP3 volumes.
