Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP has now reduced the minimum file system throughput capacity from 512 MB/s to 128 MB/s, decreasing the minimum cost of an FSx for ONTAP file system by over 50%.
An FSx for ONTAP file system’s throughput capacity determines the level of network I/O performance that is supported by its file servers. Lower-throughput file systems enable you to use FSx for ONTAP at a lower cost for workloads that don’t need the highest level of performance, such as general-purpose file shares and development & testing.
You can create new file systems with a lower throughput capacity in all regions where Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP is available. For more information, please visit the FSx for ONTAP documentation and the FSx for ONTAP product page.
