In one line

Writes are metered by the gigabyte. Reads are free, and node-hours run underneath both.

What gets missed

The data-written charge catches write-heavy workloads, metered on gigabytes written rather than operation count. In-Region traffic to other AWS services is free, so only Multi-Region replication crosses a paid boundary.

Bills the same way

These services turn exactly the same meters, so what you learn here transfers.
