Provisioned throughput
Reserved AI model capacity (for example on AWS Bedrock) bought in fixed units and billed by the hour whether you use it or not. It guarantees capacity and lowers the effective cost per request when usage is high and steady, but wastes money when usage is low. Why it matters: It is a commitment purchase, so buying it for uneven traffic can cost more than paying per request.
