It looks like the minimum price for that is ~$1500 a month. Granted, you're getting what you pay for (3 nodes that support 10,000QPS each), but the pricing is out of reach for smaller projects.

You should take a look at Google Cloud Database which is a better option and has per-operation pricing instead of per-node pricing.

That is very attractive pricing. It looks like you don't even need to preallocate capacity, just read and write as you please.
