I have never used AWS before and have created a php application hosted on an EC2 instance.
The application inserts records into a RDS after processing them. On the free tier it is inserting them at a rate of around 10 records per second.
How would I go about improving the speed at which this process takes place? I have added 100GB provisioned IOPS storage with a limit of 1000 iops.
However when I run my application I get the same speeds as before.
What specs on the Ec2 instance and the RDS instances will determine how quickly it will write to the database?
