Here Java Understanding write costs I was reading about optimizing my entities.

What I don't understand in the first line is

When your application executes a Cloud Datastore put operation

I'm using NodeJs and the NodeJs documentation mentions no put command, hence I'm confused if the extra index write costs only applies to the Insert command or also to other commands like Update.

Update I found this answer Google Datastore new pricing effect operations from what I understand it doesn't matter if I let datastore automatically index my properties since I'm only charged once for each time an entity is inserted, updated and read.

I guess the only improvement I get by excluding indexes on some properties is decreased storage requirements?

Yes the amount of indexes won't increase write costs. Although they will be making use of storage. You have the official Datastore Pricing model here
