AWS OpsWorks Supports Amazon EBS with Increased Maximum Performance and Size

Posted on: Mar 30, 2015

You can now use AWS OpsWorks with Amazon EBS Provisioned IOPS volumes that can store up to 16TB and process up to 20,000 input/output operations per second (IOPS) or Amazon EBS General Purpose (SSD) volumes that can store up to 16TB and process up to 10,000 IOPS.

These performance improvements make it even easier to run applications requiring high performance or high amounts of storage, such as large transactional databases, big data analytics, and log processing systems. Now you can run large-scale, high performance workloads on a single volume, without needing to stripe together several smaller volumes.
