Describe the feature

Change Volume.volumeType default to be EbsDeviceVolumeType.GENERAL_PURPOSE_SSD_GP3, and rename EbsDeviceVolumeType.GENERAL_PURPOSE_SSD to EbsDeviceVolumeType.GENERAL_PURPOSE_SSD_GP2

Use Case

People incur extra cost because they might not know that they should change the volume type from the default GP2 which is discouraged to use.

Proposed Solution

No response

Other Information

Currently Volume.volumeType defaults to EbsDeviceVolumeType.GENERAL_PURPOSE_SSD which refers to GP2; I think it might be time to switch the default to GP3; The naming of EbsDeviceVolumeType.GENERAL_PURPOSE_SSD for GP2 is unfortunate and should probably be deprecated for a EbsDeviceVolumeType.GENERAL_PURPOSE_SSD_GP2 instead.

Acknowledgements

  • I may be able to implement this feature request
  • This feature might incur a breaking change

Love this idea but I guess we can't switch the EbsDeviceVolumeType enum using feature flag if we plan to make EbsDeviceVolumeType.GENERAL_PURPOSE_SSD point to EbsDeviceVolumeType.GENERAL_PURPOSE_SSD_GP3. But we can change the default volume type for EBS here if volumeType is undefined.

i.e.

volumeType: props.volumeType ?? EbsDeviceVolumeType.GENERAL_PURPOSE_SSD_GP3,

Looking at the EBS console, the default volume type for a new ebs is now gp3 so I think it makes sense here.

chore(ebs): set default volumeType to gp3(under feature flag) (#29934)
bbde879 
### Issue # (if applicable)

As the EBS console is now having `gp3` as the default volumeType, this PR set the default volumeType to gp3 if undefined under feature flag.

Closes #29931

### Reason for this change



### Description of changes



### Description of how you validated changes

I have deployed the sample below and verified the volume type is `gp3` from console.

```ts
import { Stack, App, Size, aws_ec2 as ec2 } from 'aws-cdk-lib';
import * as cxapi from 'aws-cdk-lib/cx-api';

const app = new App();

const stack = new Stack(app, 'demo-stack');

stack.node.setContext(cxapi.EBS_DEFAULT_GP3, true);

// should create a gp3 volume
new ec2.Volume(stack, 'Volume', {
  availabilityZone: 'us-east-1a',
  size: Size.gibibytes(500),
});


```
