John has mastered that art of explaining complex topics with simple examples...thats his strength...those biceps are just a facade 😉

Paul Nielsen used to think of IOPS as how many birds can co currently peck on or drink from the fountain (random I/o) as opposed to throughput which is most likely realized from large data warehouse sequential is how many big concurrent gulps can be taken from the fountain .

[DmitryTsarev]

A great analogy and very clear explanation of the concepts.

It's probably worth mentioning that devices usually have different IOPS depending on the block size (size operation).
The lower the size operation, the higher the IOPS, but it's not linear.
The throughput is still better for high block/operation sizes, despite IOPS dropping.
Keep in mind that throughput is not always the limiting factor, though.

Thank you! It was easy to understand. Very insightful!
