A company has several Amazon DynamoDB tables in an AWS Region. Each table has more than 100,000 records and was created with default table settings.To reduce costs, the company needs to identify unused tables. However, the company must maintain the availability and current performance capability of the tables in case the company must use the tables in the future.Which combination of steps will meet these requirements? (Select THREE.)
B) In Amazon CloudWatch, graph the sum of the ConsumedReadCapacityUnits metric and the sum of the ConsumedWriteCapacityUnits metric for each table over a period of 1 month. and D) Change the capacity mode of the unused tables to on-demand mode. and E) Change the table class of the unused tables to DynamoDB Standard-Infrequent Access (DynamoDB Standard-IA).
A) In Amazon CloudWatch, graph the sum of the ReadThrottleEvents metric and the sum of the WriteThrottleEvents metric for each table over a period of 1 month.
C) Change the provisioned RCUs to 1 for the unused tables. Change the provisioned WCUs to 1 for the unused tables.
F) Purchase a reserved capacity of 1 RCU and 1 WCU for each unused table.

Wait, can you really just set RCUs and WCUs to 1?

Isn't changing RCUs and WCUs to 1 risky? What if we need them?

Just check the ConsumedReadCapacityUnits metric for a month.

I vaguely recall something about DynamoDB Standard-IA being a cost-saving measure, but I’m not entirely clear on when to apply it.

I practiced a similar question where we had to decide on capacity modes, and I feel like switching to on-demand mode could be a safe option for unused tables.

I think changing the provisioned RCUs and WCUs to 1 is a good way to minimize costs for tables we might not use, but I wonder if that affects performance too much.

I remember we discussed using CloudWatch metrics to identify unused tables, but I'm not sure if it's better to look at ReadThrottleEvents or ConsumedCapacity metrics.
