Not using RDS and using barebone EC2 instance for mysql. Is it beneficial to use I or D type instance when using EBS for data storage? What I have understood is I and D instance come with instance storage which is optimized. But if you are not going to use instance storage is there even a point of using I or D type instance?

1I would strongly recommend against using instance storage for RDS. Instance storage is ephemeral and will be lost if an instance dies. – mcfinnigan Apr 26 '18 at 10:49

yes, the question is about using EBS not instance storage. – Arslan Mehboob Apr 26 '18 at 11:37
