Billing item | Unit price for high-performance instances |
Additional read throughput | USD 0.0030 per 10,000 CUs |
Additional read throughput within the day is charged based on the formula:
Read throughput fees = 10000 × 86400/10000 × 0.0030. A total of USD 259.2 is charged.
When Tablestore calculates additional read/write throughput fees, the total number of consumed CUs is calculated. In this example, the total number of consumed CUs is 864 million CUs (10000 × 86400).
