DynamoDB Integration

Connect CostTrail with Amazon DynamoDB to automatically track, analyze, and optimize your NoSQL database spending across all tables, indexes, and operations.

Key Features

  • Table-level cost tracking
  • Read/write capacity monitoring
  • On-demand vs. provisioned analysis
  • Auto-scaling optimization
  • GSI and LSI cost attribution
  • Reserved capacity recommendations
  • Operation-type usage tracking
  • DAX acceleration monitoring
  • Benefits of Connecting DynamoDB

    Optimize your NoSQL database costs by integrating CostTrail with DynamoDB

    NoSQL Cost Optimization

    Identify table-level cost drivers and optimize provisioned capacity, auto-scaling settings, and on-demand usage to reduce your DynamoDB spend.

    Capacity Mode Analysis

    Compare on-demand vs. provisioned capacity costs for your workloads and receive data-driven recommendations for optimal configurations.

    Index Cost Attribution

    Track usage and costs of global and local secondary indexes separately to identify expensive access patterns and optimization opportunities.

    Performance-Cost Balance

    Balance throughput needs with cost efficiency through intelligent capacity planning and operation-type analysis.

    Simple Setup Process

    Connect your DynamoDB tables in minutes with our guided setup

    1

    Connect AWS account

    Create a read-only IAM role with permissions to access your DynamoDB and CloudWatch metrics.

    2

    Configure data collection

    Set up automatic collection of table usage, capacity consumption, and operation metrics from DynamoDB.

    3

    Map application context

    Connect your DynamoDB tables to applications, microservices, and teams for accurate cost attribution.

    4

    Enable optimization features

    Activate capacity mode recommendations, auto-scaling configuration optimization, and index usage analysis.

    DynamoDB Integration Use Cases

    How organizations leverage the CostTrail-DynamoDB integration

    Microservice Cost Allocation

    Engineering teams use CostTrail to attribute DynamoDB costs to specific microservices, enabling accurate cost allocation and departmental chargeback.

    Typical cost savings:
    23%

    Capacity Planning Optimization

    DevOps teams use CostTrail to optimize provisioned capacity settings and auto-scaling configurations, eliminating over-provisioning while avoiding throttling.

    Typical cost savings:
    37%

    Access Pattern Optimization

    Database architects use CostTrail to identify expensive access patterns and inefficient query operations, enabling data model refinements and index optimizations.

    Typical cost savings:
    29%

    Enterprise-Grade Security

    We take the security of your DynamoDB data seriously. Our integration uses the highest security standards:

    • SOC 2 Type II compliant
    • End-to-end encryption
    • Read-only IAM access
