"DynamoDB costs can blindside you with unexpected high bills, particularly with on-demand pricing. Provisioned capacity brings risks of performance issues from throttled requests."
"AWS offers a pricing calculator, but it often fails to capture nuances of real-world workloads like bursty traffic or uneven access patterns."
"A new DynamoDB cost calculator was developed to help teams accurately estimate their workload costs, beneficial for comparing DynamoDB with ScyllaDB."
"The calculator was created as a client-side JavaScript application hosted on GitHub pages to avoid complications with server components."
DynamoDB pricing can result in unexpected costs due to poor performance predictions and usage patterns. On-demand pricing may create bill shocks, while provisioned capacity can lead to throttled requests. A new cost calculator was developed to address these challenges and enhance estimating accuracy for users considering DynamoDB versus ScyllaDB. The calculator operates client-side as a simple JavaScript application, hosted on GitHub pages, providing a better alternative to the AWS calculator that often lacks vital details.
