Which of the below mentioned options is a right use case for the PIOPS EBS volume?
Analytics
System boot volume
Mongo DB
Log processing
Explanations:
EBS PIOPS volumes are not typically used for analytics workloads as they often involve large sequential read operations, which can be handled by lower-cost, general-purpose volumes.
While EBS PIOPS can be used for system boot volumes, it is often unnecessary as boot volumes usually require lower IOPS, making standard SSD volumes sufficient.
MongoDB is a database that can benefit significantly from high IOPS, especially under heavy read/write operations. PIOPS volumes are designed for applications requiring consistent and low-latency performance.
Log processing often involves sequential reads and writes, which can be effectively managed by standard EBS volumes. High IOPS are not typically needed for this use case.
From my perspective, the answer is:
Mongo DB
