AWS EC2: Baseline of 3 IOPS per GiB with a minimum of 100 IOPS

Question

I seem to remember the policy was Baseline of 3 IOPS per GiB. If I have a volumn of 8GB, I get 24 IOPS. Now with the a minimum of 100 IOPS, do I get at least 100 IOPS no matter how small my volumn is?

Answer 1

Yes, at 33.33 GiB and below, an EBS SSD (gp2) volume will have 100 IOPS. This is spelled out clearly in the docs.
