AWS speeds-up EBS and reduces instances pricing

Another busy week for AWS which added new compute instance types, cut prices on existing ones, and increased the limit on provisioned IOPS for EBS volumes. Amazon is getting busier as more public cloud options come on line. 

Some computing and storage tasks require faster data input/output than others. That’s why in August, Amazon Web Services said customers could, for an additional fee, allocate up to 1,000 Input/Output Operations per Second (IOPS) per EBS storage volume.  On Thursday, the company doubled the limit to 2,000 IOPS per EBS volume according to a post on the very busy AWS blog.  Faster storage input/output is important in database and transaction processing applications.
