The maximum number of strongly consistent reads consumed per second before DynamoDB returns a
<code>ThrottlingException</code>. Eventually consistent reads require less effort than strongly consistent reads,
so a setting of 50 <code>ReadCapacityUnits</code> per second provides 100 eventually consistent
<code>ReadCapacityUnits</code> per second.
