We have also upgraded all of our brokered database plans to use `gp3` as the storage volume type by default. - -The `gp3` type comes with an increased max throughput per volume/instance versus the previous `gp2` type. A full breakdown comparison of `gp3` vs `gp2` [can be found here](https://aws.amazon.com/ebs/general-purpose/). - -## How does this affect me? - -These changes will only be applied to **new services (database, Elasticsearch/Opensearch)** that are created.
