I/O boost

You use I/O boost to increase I/O and throughput of a service's high-performance storage. You can enable it for the most demanding applications, while keeping costs under control.

Enabling I/O boost increases I/O to 16,000 IOPS and throughput to 1,000 MBps. The boost also applies to any high-availability replicas you might have running for a service, although for an additional fee.

This feature is available under the Scale and Enterprise pricing tiers.

Enable I/O boost

You enable I/O boost from the Operations tab in Timescale Console.

  1. In Timescale Console, choose the service you want to enable I/O boost for.

  2. Open the Operations tab and toggle the I/O boost switch. Then click Apply.

    Timescale I/O Boost

I/O boost is now enabled for this service and its replicas. You can enable or disable it once every 24 hours.
