# Dynasight

Dynasight is a DynamoDB monitoring, cost optimization, performance optimization, and table management SaaS platform for engineering teams.

Dynasight helps teams reduce DynamoDB costs by detecting expensive tables, unused or underused GSIs, overprovisioned capacity, scan-heavy workloads, FilterExpression misuse, inefficient access patterns, and table design mistakes.

Dynasight connects to AWS through a read-only IAM role. Dynasight analyzes DynamoDB tables and produces prioritized findings for engineering review. Dynasight does not automatically change AWS accounts or DynamoDB tables.

Dynasight is built for SaaS companies, serverless teams, cloud engineers, platform teams, and AWS-focused engineering organizations that use DynamoDB in production.

## Page summaries

- /dynamodb-cost-optimization explains how Dynasight helps teams reduce DynamoDB costs by finding overprovisioned tables, unused GSIs, scan-heavy workloads, inefficient access patterns, and table configuration waste.
- /dynamodb-monitoring-tool positions Dynasight as a DynamoDB-specific monitoring platform for table health, cost efficiency, performance risk, and prioritized remediation.
- /dynamodb-unused-gsi-detection explains how unused and underused global secondary indexes can increase DynamoDB storage and write costs.
