Question

Shruthi J · Accepted Answer

On demand capacity mode: No need to specify read/write units DynamoDB automatically scales with traffic Best for unpredictable workloads Easier to manage but can be more expensive for steady,high volume usage Provisioned capacity mode: Need to manually specify the number of read & write capacity units Suitable for predictable workloads Can use auto scaling to adjust capacity Cheaper than on demand if traffic is steady & known Risk of throttling if traffic exceeds provisioned limits
