You have two choices if you don't want to limit usage of your db:

  1. Increase size of your storage, as for gp2, the bigger the size the more IOPS you get.
  2. Change from gp2 to Provisioned IOPS SSD where you can specify fixed IOPS that you require. Provisioned IOPS SSD will be probably also more expensive.
