Amazon Kinesis Data Streams Pricing

Amazon Kinesis Data Streams Pricing depends on type of capacity mode. Following is the comparision

On-Demand Mode	Provisioned Mode
With on-demand capacity mode, you pay per GB of data written and read from your data streams.	With provisioned capacity mode, you specify the number of shards necessary for your application based on its write and read request rate.
The data ingested into Kinesis Data Streams is billed per GB written into your data stream.	A shard is a unit of capacity that provides 1 MB/second of write and 2 MB/second of read throughout.
The data retrieved from Kinesis Data Streams is billed per GB read from a data stream.	A record is the data that your data producer adds to your Amazon Kinesis data stream. A PUT Payload Unit is counted in 25 KB payload “chunks” that comprise a record.
Enhanced fan-out improves read parallelism by providing each data consumer with their own read throughput per shard, up to 2 MB/second.	Enhanced fan-out improves read parallelism by providing each data consumer with their own read throughput per shard (up to 2 MB/second).
