DLVs are particularly advantageous for databases with large allocated storage, high I/O per second (IOPS) requirements, or latency-sensitive workloads. The DLV, of course, affects the WRITE operations the most, and hence, the write-only test should be given the most consideration for the comparison of the DLV configuration vs. standard RDS.

However, consistency is a very expensive thing in distributed systems, so it can be traded not only to availability. Consistency.
