Introduction
In the previous chapter, we discussed how to develop and deploy web applications using DynamoDB as a backend service. Now, it's time to understand how to use DynamoDB as a backend service for mobile applications.
In this chapter, we are going to create an Android app for an address book. For this, we will use DynamoDB as a backend service.
Steps to register and use the address book:
- A new user should be able to register to the application
- A registered user should be able to log in to the application
- A logged-in user should be able to add new contacts
- A logged-in user should be able to view the already added contacts
We would also like to see our application being installed on any Android device.
The technology stack for this application will be as follows:
- The Android SDK for service development
- DynamoDB for data storage
The complete code for this application is available for download at https://github.com/deshpandetanmay/dynamodb-cookbook.
