# Configure read/write capacity modes in Amazon Keyspaces
<a name="ReadWriteCapacityMode"></a>

Amazon Keyspaces has two read/write capacity modes for processing reads and writes on your tables: 
+  On-demand (default) 
+  Provisioned 

 The read/write capacity mode that you choose controls how you are charged for read and write throughput and how table throughput capacity is managed.
