Summary
In this chapter, we looked at the NoSQL service known as DynamoDB. We explored how tables are created and partitioned, along with how to write and query data from DynamoDB. We also examined how to stream data from tables to other sources, along with using the DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX), a specialized cache, to help speed up our queries.
We have now finished Part 1, Establishing Fundamentals, where we reviewed Amazon Web Services. Next, we will move on to Part 2, Developing, Deploying, and Using Infrastructure as Code. In the upcoming chapters, we will incorporate many of the services that we have just discussed and then put them into action.
