🗣 Description
Update storage_type to gp3 which allows us to configure iops independent of disk size. We are setting to 16,000 based on monitoring throughput during a data sync.
💭 Motivation and context
In testing the vulnScanningSync in parallel we hit major database roadblocks. Specifically, huge spikes in writeIops, readIops, and DisdkQueueDepth getting up to 40.
gp2 volume scales performance with storage so we only have about 3,000 IOPS. Need to increase with gp3
🧪 Testing
Passes pre-commit and github checks.
