Detailed explanation-1: -Throughput time refers to the total amount of time that it takes to run a particular process in its entirety from start to finish. For example, a manufacturer can measure how long it takes to produce a product, from initial customer order to sourcing raw materials to manufacturing to sale.
Detailed explanation-2: -Throughput units are pre-purchased units of capacity. A single throughput unit lets you: Ingress: Up to 1 MB per second or 1000 events per second (whichever comes first). Egress: Up to 2 MB per second or 4096 events per second.
Detailed explanation-3: -A computer term for the volume of work or information flowing through a system. Particularly meaningful in information storage and retrieval systems, in which throughput is measured in units such as accesses per hour.
Detailed explanation-4: -When an order is received in a logistics centre, it passes through various processes until it is completed. For each of these individual processes, the lead time is measured. If you add the lead times of the individual processes, you get the total lead time, also called order throughput time.
