DISK read, IOPS

Reading Time: < 1 minute

License block: Vezha features

What it shows

DISK read, IOPS in Vezha is available as disk.read_iops. This is the number of read operations per interval, not the amount in bytes.

Why it matters

IOPS allows you to distinguish between “many small operations” and “several large threads”. This is critical for OLTP workloads, because the number of operations often hits the disk limit.

An example from practice

Read volume looked moderate, but read IOPS remained abnormally high. After reviewing the database query plan, the team reduced random hits and took the pressure off storage.
