Throughput refers to the number and rate of inputs and outputs that a model processes and returns. You can purchase Provisioned Throughput to provision a higher level of throughput for a model at a fixed cost. If you customized a model, you must purchase Provisioned Throughput to be able to use it.
You're billed hourly for a Provisioned Throughput that you purchase. For detailed information about pricing,
see Amazon Bedrock Pricing

The model that you choose (for custom models, pricing is the same as the base model that it was customized from).
-
The number of Model Units (MUs) that you specify for the Provisioned Throughput. An MU delivers a specific throughput level for the specified model. The throughput level of an MU specifies the following:
-
The number of input tokens that an MU can process across all requests within a span of one minute.
-
The number of output tokens that an MU can generate across all requests within a span of one minute.
Note
