RDS Storage & IOPS Calculator

RDS Storage & IOPS Calculator MCP Connector for Claude

A+

Calculate AWS RDS storage capacity, baseline IOPS, and performance saturation risks.

3 tools Official Updated Oct 1, 2026 Official Vinkius Partner

This MCP server provides deterministic calculations for AWS RDS storage configurations. It allows AI agents to determine baseline IOPS and throughput for various storage types like General Purpose SSD (gp2) and Provisioned IOPS SSD (io1). Users can check if storage needs scaling via check_autoscaling_status or evaluate performance risks using analyze_replica_lag_risk. It also provides detailed metrics through get_storage_metrics to ensure database configurations stay within engine limits for MySQL, PostgreSQL, Aurora, and more.

3 tools expose this connector's capabilities to your AI agent.

get_storage_metrics

Calculates the baseline IOPS and throughput for a specific storage configuration

check_autoscaling_status

Determines if the current storage configuration is approaching the threshold for AWS storage autoscaling

analyze_replica_lag_risk

Evaluates the risk of replica lag caused by IOPS saturation

What are the baseline IOPS and throughput for a 500GB gp2 RDS instance?

A 500GB gp2 instance provides 1,500 baseline IOPS and a baseline throughput of 250 MB/s.

Is my 1000GB PostgreSQL instance approaching its storage limit?

The current storage size is well within the 64 TB maximum limit for PostgreSQL.

Check if my 100GB gp2 volume at 95% utilization needs scaling.

Yes, the storage utilization has reached the 90% threshold, so scaling is required.

You can use the `check_autoscaling_status` tool to see if your current storage utilization has reached the 90% threshold required for AWS autoscaling.
