Optimize your Amazon Keyspaces (for Apache Cassandra) costs with these tips

Capacity Mode Settings

Evaluate the capacity mode of your tables and provision only what's needed. On-demand mode charges for what's used, while provisioned mode optimizes price for predictable usage.

Utilize Cost Explorer

Analyze tables at individual level using Cost Explorer to identify cost optimization opportunities like unused indexes or tags, avoiding unnecessary expenses.

Auto Scaling Configuration

Configure Auto Scaling settings for provisioned tables to dynamically scale based on workloads, preventing over-provisioning and reducing costs for unused capacity.

Amazon Keyspaces (for Apache Cassandra) pricing

Amazon Keyspaces has two modes: on-demand and provisioned. On-demand charges for actual read/write operations, whereas provisioned mode allows setting expected read/write rates with flexible capacity. Costs vary based on capacity mode, data size, and consistency level. On-demand uses read/write request units (RRUs/WRUs) while provisioned uses read/write capacity units (RCUs/WCUs) for measurement. Extra cost applies for Multi-Region replication.
