CapacitySpecification - Amazon Keyspaces (for Apache Cassandra)

CapacitySpecification

Amazon Keyspaces has two read/write capacity modes for processing reads and writes on your tables:

  • On-demand (default)

  • Provisioned

The read/write capacity mode that you choose controls how you are charged for read and write throughput and how table throughput capacity is managed.

For more information, see Read/write capacity modes in the Amazon Keyspaces Developer Guide.
