Description

What

Estimate DynamoDB on-demand request, table storage, stream, and backup costs from explicit monthly usage assumptions.

Why

CloudBurn can price declared provisioned capacity, but on-demand tables and stored data depend on workload. Adding those inputs gives reviewers a fuller estimate without turning missing usage into zero cost.

Scope

  • Price on-demand reads and writes as separate cost lines
  • Estimate stored data by table class
  • Include stream and backup usage only when the feature and its quantity are supplied
  • Keep provisioned capacity estimates unchanged

Research direction

Start by locating CloudBurn’s existing provisioned-capacity DynamoDB pricing path and the inputs used for declared usage. Add separate on-demand read and write estimates, table-class storage estimates, and conditional stream and backup costs without changing provisioned estimates; verify each cost line against explicit monthly assumptions.
