Amazon DynamoDB Overview
This is the Amazon DynamoDB API Reference. This guide provides descriptions and samples of the low-level DynamoDB API. For information about DynamoDB application development, go to the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide .
Instead of making the requests to the low-level DynamoDB API directly from your application, we recommend that you use the AWS Software Development Kits (SDKs). The easy-to-use libraries in the AWS SDKs make it unnecessary to call the low-level DynamoDB API directly from your application. The libraries take care of request authentication, serialization, and connection management. For more information, go to Using the AWS SDKs with DynamoDB in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide .
If you decide to code against the low-level DynamoDB API directly, you will need to write the necessary code to authenticate your requests. For more information on signing your requests, go to Using the DynamoDB API in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide .
The following are short descriptions of each low-level API action, organized by function.
Managing Tables
CreateTable - Creates a table with user-specified provisioned throughput settings. You must designate one attribute as the hash primary key for the table; you can optionally designate a second attribute as the range primary key. DynamoDB creates indexes on these key attributes for fast data access. Optionally, you can create one or more secondary indexes, which provide fast data access using non-key attributes.
DescribeTable - Returns metadata for a table, such as table size, status, and index information.
UpdateTable - Modifies the provisioned throughput settings for a table. Optionally, you can modify the provisioned throughput settings for global secondary indexes on the table.
ListTables - Returns a list of all tables associated with the current AWS account and endpoint.
DeleteTable - Deletes a table and all of its indexes.
For conceptual information about managing tables, go to Working with Tables in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide .
Reading Data
GetItem - Returns a set of attributes for the item that has a given primary key. By default, GetItem performs an eventually consistent read; however, applications can specify a strongly consistent read instead.
BatchGetItem - Performs multiple GetItem requests for data items using their primary keys, from one table or multiple tables. The response from BatchGetItem has a size limit of 16 MB and returns a maximum of 100 items. Both eventually consistent and strongly consistent reads can be used.
Query - Returns one or more items from a table or a secondary index. You must provide a specific hash key value. You can narrow the scope of the query using comparison operators against a range key value, or on the index key. Query supports either eventual or strong consistency. A single response has a size limit of 1 MB.
Scan - Reads every item in a table; the result set is eventually consistent. You can limit the number of items returned by filtering the data attributes, using conditional expressions. Scan can be used to enable ad-hoc querying of a table against non-key attributes; however, since this is a full table scan without using an index, Scan should not be used for any application query use case that requires predictable performance.
For conceptual information about reading data, go to Working with Items and Query and Scan Operations in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide .
Modifying Data
PutItem - Creates a new item, or replaces an existing item with a new item (including all the attributes). By default, if an item in the table already exists with the same primary key, the new item completely replaces the existing item. You can use conditional operators to replace an item only if its attribute values match certain conditions, or to insert a new item only if that item doesn't already exist.
UpdateItem - Modifies the attributes of an existing item. You can also use conditional operators to perform an update only if the item's attribute values match certain conditions.
DeleteItem - Deletes an item in a table by primary key. You can use conditional operators to perform a delete an item only if the item's attribute values match certain conditions.
BatchWriteItem - Performs multiple PutItem and DeleteItem requests across multiple tables in a single request. A failure of any request(s) in the batch will not cause the entire BatchWriteItem operation to fail. Supports batches of up to 25 items to put or delete, with a maximum total request size of 16 MB.
For conceptual information about modifying data, go to Working with Items and Query and Scan Operations in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide .

The Scan operation returns one or more items and item attributes by accessing every item in the table. To have DynamoDB return fewer items, you can provide a ScanFilter operation.
If the total number of scanned items exceeds the maximum data set size limit of 1 MB, the scan stops and results are returned to the user as a LastEvaluatedKey value to continue the scan in a subsequent operation. The results also include the number of items exceeding the limit. A scan can result in no table data meeting the filter criteria.
The result set is eventually consistent.
By default, Scan operations proceed sequentially; however, for faster performance on large tables, applications can request a parallel Scan operation by specifying the Segment and TotalSegments parameters. For more information, see Parallel Scan in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide .
scan in interface AmazonDynamoDBscanRequest - Container for the necessary parameters to execute
the Scan service method on AmazonDynamoDBv2.ResourceNotFoundExceptionProvisionedThroughputExceededExceptionInternalServerErrorExceptioncom.amazonaws.AmazonClientException - If any internal errors are encountered inside the client while
attempting to make the request or handle the response. For example
if a network connection is not available.com.amazonaws.AmazonServiceException - If an error response is returned by AmazonDynamoDBv2 indicating
either a problem with the data in the request, or a server side issue.public UpdateTableResult updateTable(UpdateTableRequest updateTableRequest)
Updates the provisioned throughput for the given table. Setting the throughput for a table helps you manage performance and is part of the provisioned throughput feature of DynamoDB.
The provisioned throughput values can be upgraded or downgraded based on the maximums and minimums listed in the Limits section in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide .
The table must be in the ACTIVE state for this operation
to succeed. UpdateTable is an asynchronous operation; while
executing the operation, the table is in the UPDATING
state. While the table is in the UPDATING state, the
table still has the provisioned throughput from before the call. The
new provisioned throughput setting is in effect only when the table
returns to the ACTIVE state after the UpdateTable
operation.
You cannot add, modify or delete indexes using UpdateTable . Indexes can only be defined at table creation time.

execute the UpdateTable service method on AmazonDynamoDBv2.ResourceInUseExceptionResourceNotFoundExceptionLimitExceededExceptionInternalServerErrorExceptioncom.amazonaws.AmazonClientException - If any internal errors are encountered inside the client while
attempting to make the request or handle the response. For example
if a network connection is not available.com.amazonaws.AmazonServiceException - If an error response is returned by AmazonDynamoDBv2 indicating
either a problem with the data in the request, or a server side issue.public DeleteTableResult deleteTable(DeleteTableRequest deleteTableRequest)
The DeleteTable operation deletes a table and all of its
items. After a DeleteTable request, the specified table is in
the DELETING state until DynamoDB completes the deletion.
If the table is in the ACTIVE state, you can delete it.
If a table is in CREATING or UPDATING
states, then DynamoDB returns a ResourceInUseException . If the
specified table does not exist, DynamoDB returns a
ResourceNotFoundException . If table is already in the
DELETING state, no error is returned.
NOTE: DynamoDB might continue to accept data read and write operations, such as GetItem and PutItem, on a table in the DELETING state until the table deletion is complete.
When you delete a table, any indexes on that table are also deleted.
Use the DescribeTable API to check the status of the table.

execute the DeleteTable service method on AmazonDynamoDBv2.ResourceInUseExceptionResourceNotFoundExceptionLimitExceededExceptionInternalServerErrorExceptioncom.amazonaws.AmazonClientException - If any internal errors are encountered inside the client while
attempting to make the request or handle the response. For example
if a network connection is not available.com.amazonaws.AmazonServiceException - If an error response is returned by AmazonDynamoDBv2 indicating
either a problem with the data in the request, or a server side issue.public BatchWriteItemResult batchWriteItem(BatchWriteItemRequest batchWriteItemRequest)
The BatchWriteItem operation puts or deletes multiple items in one or more tables. A single call to BatchWriteItem can write up to 16 MB of data, which can comprise as many as 25 put or delete requests. Individual items to be written can be as large as 400 KB.
NOTE: BatchWriteItem cannot update items. To update items, use the UpdateItem API.
The individual PutItem and DeleteItem operations specified in BatchWriteItem are atomic; however BatchWriteItem as a whole is not. If any requested operations fail because the table's provisioned throughput is exceeded or an internal processing failure occurs, the failed operations are returned in the UnprocessedItems response parameter. You can investigate and optionally resend the requests. Typically, you would call BatchWriteItem in a loop. Each iteration would check for unprocessed items and submit a new BatchWriteItem request with those unprocessed items until all items have been processed.
Note that if none of the items can be processed due to insufficient provisioned throughput on all of the tables in the request, then BatchWriteItem will return a ProvisionedThroughputExceededException .
IMPORTANT: If DynamoDB returns any unprocessed items, you should retry the batch operation on those items. However, we strongly recommend that you use an exponential backoff algorithm. If you retry the batch operation immediately, the underlying read or write requests can still fail due to throttling on the individual tables. If you delay the batch operation using exponential backoff, the individual requests in the batch are much more likely to succeed. For more information, go to Batch Operations and Error Handling in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.
With BatchWriteItem , you can efficiently write or delete large amounts of data, such as from Amazon Elastic MapReduce (EMR), or copy data from another database into DynamoDB. In order to improve performance with these large-scale operations, BatchWriteItem does not behave in the same way as individual PutItem and DeleteItem calls would For example, you cannot specify conditions on individual put and delete requests, and BatchWriteItem does not return deleted items in the response.
If you use a programming language that supports concurrency, such as Java, you can use threads to write items in parallel. Your application must include the necessary logic to manage the threads. With languages that don't support threading, such as PHP, you must update or delete the specified items one at a time. In both situations, BatchWriteItem provides an alternative where the API performs the specified put and delete operations in parallel, giving you the power of the thread pool approach without having to introduce complexity into your application.
Parallel processing reduces latency, but each specified put and delete request consumes the same number of write capacity units whether it is processed in parallel or not. Delete operations on nonexistent items consume one write capacity unit.
If one or more of the following is true, DynamoDB rejects the entire batch write operation:
One or more tables specified in the BatchWriteItem request does not exist.
Primary key attributes specified on an item in the request do not match those in the corresponding table's primary key schema.
You try to perform multiple operations on the same item in the same BatchWriteItem request. For example, you cannot put and delete the same item in the same BatchWriteItem request.
There are more than 25 requests in the batch.
Any individual item in a batch exceeds 400 KB.
The total request size exceeds 16 MB.
batchWriteItem in interface AmazonDynamoDBbatchWriteItemRequest - Container for the necessary parameters to

if a network connection is not available.com.amazonaws.AmazonServiceException - If an error response is returned by AmazonDynamoDBv2 indicating
either a problem with the data in the request, or a server side issue.public DescribeTableResult describeTable(DescribeTableRequest describeTableRequest)
Returns information about the table, including the current status of the table, when it was created, the primary key schema, and any indexes on the table.
NOTE: If you issue a DescribeTable request immediately after a CreateTable request, DynamoDB might return a ResourceNotFoundException. This is because DescribeTable uses an eventually consistent query, and the metadata for your table might not be available at that moment. Wait for a few seconds, and then try the DescribeTable request again.
describeTable in interface AmazonDynamoDBdescribeTableRequest - Container for the necessary parameters to
execute the DescribeTable service method on AmazonDynamoDBv2.ResourceNotFoundExceptionInternalServerErrorExceptioncom.amazonaws.AmazonClientException - If any internal errors are encountered inside the client while
attempting to make the request or handle the response. For example
if a network connection is not available.com.amazonaws.AmazonServiceException - If an error response is returned by AmazonDynamoDBv2 indicating
either a problem with the data in the request, or a server side issue.public GetItemResult getItem(GetItemRequest getItemRequest)
The GetItem operation returns a set of attributes for the item with the given primary key. If there is no matching item, GetItem does not return any data.
GetItem provides an eventually consistent read by default. If
your application requires a strongly consistent read, set
ConsistentRead to true . Although a strongly
consistent read might take more time than an eventually consistent
read, it always returns the last updated value.
getItem in interface AmazonDynamoDBgetItemRequest - Container for the necessary parameters to
execute the GetItem service method on AmazonDynamoDBv2.ResourceNotFoundExceptionProvisionedThroughputExceededExceptionInternalServerErrorExceptioncom.amazonaws.AmazonClientException - If any internal errors are encountered inside the client while
attempting to make the request or handle the response. For example
if a network connection is not available.com.amazonaws.AmazonServiceException - If an error response is returned by AmazonDynamoDBv2 indicating
either a problem with the data in the request, or a server side issue.public DeleteItemResult deleteItem(DeleteItemRequest deleteItemRequest)
Deletes a single item in a table by primary key. You can perform a conditional delete operation that deletes the item if it exists, or if it has an expected attribute value.
In addition to deleting an item, you can also return the item's attribute values in the same operation, using the ReturnValues parameter.
Unless you specify conditions, the DeleteItem is an idempotent operation; running it multiple times on the same item or attribute does not result in an error response.
Conditional deletes are useful for deleting items only if specific conditions are met. If those conditions are met, DynamoDB performs the delete. Otherwise, the item is not deleted.
deleteItem in interface AmazonDynamoDBdeleteItemRequest - Container for the necessary parameters to
execute the DeleteItem service method on AmazonDynamoDBv2.ItemCollectionSizeLimitExceededExceptionResourceNotFoundExceptionConditionalCheckFailedExceptionProvisionedThroughputExceededExceptionInternalServerErrorExceptioncom.amazonaws.AmazonClientException - If any internal errors are encountered inside the client while
attempting to make the request or handle the response. For example
if a network connection is not available.com.amazonaws.AmazonServiceException - If an error response is returned by AmazonDynamoDBv2 indicating
either a problem with the data in the request, or a server side issue.public CreateTableResult createTable(CreateTableRequest createTableRequest)
The CreateTable operation adds a new table to your account. In an AWS account, table names must be unique within each region. That is, you can have two tables with same name if you create the tables in different regions.
CreateTable is an asynchronous operation. Upon receiving a
CreateTable request, DynamoDB immediately returns a response
with a TableStatus of CREATING . After the table
is created, DynamoDB sets the TableStatus to
ACTIVE . You can perform read and write operations only
on an ACTIVE table.
If you want to create multiple tables with secondary indexes on them,
you must create them sequentially. Only one table with secondary
indexes can be in the CREATING state at any given time.
You can use the DescribeTable API to check the table status.
createTable in interface AmazonDynamoDBcreateTableRequest - Container for the necessary parameters to
execute the CreateTable service method on AmazonDynamoDBv2.ResourceInUseExceptionLimitExceededExceptionInternalServerErrorExceptioncom.amazonaws.AmazonClientException - If any internal errors are encountered inside the client while
attempting to make the request or handle the response. For example
if a network connection is not available.com.amazonaws.AmazonServiceException - If an error response is returned by AmazonDynamoDBv2 indicating
either a problem with the data in the request, or a server side issue.public QueryResult query(QueryRequest queryRequest)
A Query operation directly accesses items from a table using the table primary key, or from an index using the index key. You must provide a specific hash key value. You can narrow the scope of the query by using comparison operators on the range key value, or on the index key. You can use the ScanIndexForward parameter to get results in forward or reverse order, by range key or by index key.
Queries that do not return results consume the minimum number of read capacity units for that type of read operation.
If the total number of items meeting the query criteria exceeds the result set size limit of 1 MB, the query stops and results are returned to the user with LastEvaluatedKey to continue the query in a subsequent operation. Unlike a Scan operation, a Query operation never returns both an empty result set and a LastEvaluatedKey . The LastEvaluatedKey is only provided if the results exceed 1 MB, or if you have used Limit .
You can query a table, a local secondary index, or a global secondary index. For a query on a table or on a local secondary index, you can set ConsistentRead to true and obtain a strongly consistent result. Global secondary indexes support eventually consistent reads only, so do not specify ConsistentRead when querying a global secondary index.
query in interface AmazonDynamoDBqueryRequest - Container for the necessary parameters to execute
the Query service method on AmazonDynamoDBv2.ResourceNotFoundExceptionProvisionedThroughputExceededExceptionInternalServerErrorExceptioncom.amazonaws.AmazonClientException - If any internal errors are encountered inside the client while
attempting to make the request or handle the response. For example
if a network connection is not available.com.amazonaws.AmazonServiceException - If an error response is returned by AmazonDynamoDBv2 indicating
either a problem with the data in the request, or a server side issue.public PutItemResult putItem(PutItemRequest putItemRequest)
Creates a new item, or replaces an old item with a new item. If an item that has the same primary key as the new item already exists in the specified table, the new item completely replaces the existing item. You can perform a conditional put operation (add a new item if one with the specified primary key doesn't exist), or replace an existing item if it has certain attribute values.
In addition to putting an item, you can also return the item's attribute values in the same operation, using the ReturnValues parameter.
When you add an item, the primary key attribute(s) are the only required attributes. Attribute values cannot be null. String and Binary type attributes must have lengths greater than zero. Set type attributes cannot be empty. Requests with empty values will be rejected with a ValidationException exception.
You can request that PutItem return either a copy of the original item (before the update) or a copy of the updated item (after the update). For more information, see the ReturnValues description below.
NOTE: To prevent a new item from replacing an existing item, use a conditional put operation with ComparisonOperator set to NULL for the primary key attribute, or attributes.
For more information about using this API, see Working with Items in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide .

Edits an existing item's attributes, or adds a new item to the table if it does not already exist. You can put, delete, or add attribute values. You can also perform a conditional update (insert a new attribute name-value pair if it doesn't exist, or replace an existing name-value pair if it has certain expected attribute values).
You can also return the item's attribute values in the same UpdateItem operation using the ReturnValues parameter.

The BatchGetItem operation returns the attributes of one or more items from one or more tables. You identify requested items by primary key.
A single operation can retrieve up to 16 MB of data, which can contain as many as 100 items. BatchGetItem will return a partial result if the response size limit is exceeded, the table's provisioned throughput is exceeded, or an internal processing failure occurs. If a partial result is returned, the operation returns a value for UnprocessedKeys . You can use this value to retry the operation starting with the next item to get.
For example, if you ask to retrieve 100 items, but each individual item is 300 KB in size, the system returns 52 items (so as not to exceed the 16 MB limit). It also returns an appropriate UnprocessedKeys value so you can get the next page of results. If desired, your application can include its own logic to assemble the pages of results into one data set.
If none of the items can be processed due to insufficient provisioned throughput on all of the tables in the request, then BatchGetItem will return a ProvisionedThroughputExceededException . If at least one of the items is successfully processed, then BatchGetItem completes successfully, while returning the keys of the unread items in UnprocessedKeys .
IMPORTANT: If DynamoDB returns any unprocessed items, you should retry the batch operation on those items. However, we strongly recommend that you use an exponential backoff algorithm. If you retry the batch operation immediately, the underlying read or write requests can still fail due to throttling on the individual tables. If you delay the batch operation using exponential backoff, the individual requests in the batch are much more likely to succeed. For more information, go to Batch Operations and Error Handling in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.
By default, BatchGetItem performs eventually consistent reads
on every table in the request. If you want strongly consistent reads
instead, you can set ConsistentRead to true for
any or all tables.
In order to minimize response latency, BatchGetItem retrieves items in parallel.
When designing your application, keep in mind that DynamoDB does not return attributes in any particular order. To help parse the response by item, include the primary key values for the items in your request in the AttributesToGet parameter.
If a requested item does not exist, it is not returned in the result. Requests for nonexistent items consume the minimum read capacity units according to the type of read. For more information, see Capacity Units Calculations in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide .

The Scan operation returns one or more items and item attributes by accessing every item in the table. To have DynamoDB return fewer items, you can provide a ScanFilter operation.
If the total number of scanned items exceeds the maximum data set size limit of 1 MB, the scan stops and results are returned to the user as a LastEvaluatedKey value to continue the scan in a subsequent operation. The results also include the number of items exceeding the limit. A scan can result in no table data meeting the filter criteria.
The result set is eventually consistent.
By default, Scan operations proceed sequentially; however, for faster performance on large tables, applications can request a parallel Scan operation by specifying the Segment and TotalSegments parameters. For more information, see Parallel Scan in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide .

A condition that evaluates the scan results and returns only the desired values.
If you specify more than one condition in the ScanFilter map, then by default all of the conditions must evaluate to true. In other words, the conditions are ANDed together. (You can use the ConditionalOperator parameter to OR the conditions instead. If you do this, then at least one of the conditions must evaluate to true, rather than all of them.)
Each ScanFilter element consists of an attribute name to compare, along with the following:
AttributeValueList - One or more values to evaluate against the supplied attribute. The number of values in the list depends on the operator specified in ComparisonOperator .
For type Number, value comparisons are numeric.
String value
comparisons for greater than, equals, or less than are based on ASCII
character code values. For example, a is greater than
A, and aa is greater than B.
For a list of code values, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII#ASCII_printable_characters.
For Binary, DynamoDB treats each byte of the binary data as unsigned when it compares binary values, for example when evaluating query expressions.

Updates the provisioned throughput for the given table. Setting the throughput for a table helps you manage performance and is part of the provisioned throughput feature of DynamoDB.
The provisioned throughput values can be upgraded or downgraded based on the maximums and minimums listed in the Limits section in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide .
The table must be in the ACTIVE state for this operation
to succeed. UpdateTable is an asynchronous operation; while
executing the operation, the table is in the UPDATING
state. While the table is in the UPDATING state, the
table still has the provisioned throughput from before the call. The
new provisioned throughput setting is in effect only when the table
returns to the ACTIVE state after the UpdateTable
operation.
You cannot add, modify or delete indexes using UpdateTable . Indexes can only be defined at table creation time.
updateTable in interface AmazonDynamoDBtableName - The name of the table to be updated.provisionedThroughput - Represents the provisioned throughput
settings for a specified table or index. The settings can be modified
using the UpdateTable operation. For current minimum and maximum provisioned throughput values, see Limits in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.

The DeleteTable operation deletes a table and all of its
items. After a DeleteTable request, the specified table is in
the DELETING state until DynamoDB completes the deletion.
If the table is in the ACTIVE state, you can delete it.
If a table is in CREATING or UPDATING
states, then DynamoDB returns a ResourceInUseException . If the
specified table does not exist, DynamoDB returns a
ResourceNotFoundException . If table is already in the
DELETING state, no error is returned.
NOTE: DynamoDB might continue to accept data read and write operations, such as GetItem and PutItem, on a table in the DELETING state until the table deletion is complete.
When you delete a table, any indexes on that table are also deleted.
Use the DescribeTable API to check the status of the table.

The BatchWriteItem operation puts or deletes multiple items in one or more tables. A single call to BatchWriteItem can write up to 16 MB of data, which can comprise as many as 25 put or delete requests. Individual items to be written can be as large as 400 KB.
NOTE: BatchWriteItem cannot update items. To update items, use the UpdateItem API.
The individual PutItem and DeleteItem operations specified in BatchWriteItem are atomic; however BatchWriteItem as a whole is not. If any requested operations fail because the table's provisioned throughput is exceeded or an internal processing failure occurs, the failed operations are returned in the UnprocessedItems response parameter. You can investigate and optionally resend the requests. Typically, you would call BatchWriteItem in a loop. Each iteration would check for unprocessed items and submit a new BatchWriteItem request with those unprocessed items until all items have been processed.
Note that if none of the items can be processed due to insufficient provisioned throughput on all of the tables in the request, then BatchWriteItem will return a ProvisionedThroughputExceededException .
IMPORTANT: If DynamoDB returns any unprocessed items, you should retry the batch operation on those items. However, we strongly recommend that you use an exponential backoff algorithm. If you retry the batch operation immediately, the underlying read or write requests can still fail due to throttling on the individual tables. If you delay the batch operation using exponential backoff, the individual requests in the batch are much more likely to succeed. For more information, go to Batch Operations and Error Handling in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.
With BatchWriteItem , you can efficiently write or delete large amounts of data, such as from Amazon Elastic MapReduce (EMR), or copy data from another database into DynamoDB. In order to improve performance with these large-scale operations, BatchWriteItem does not behave in the same way as individual PutItem and DeleteItem calls would For example, you cannot specify conditions on individual put and delete requests, and BatchWriteItem does not return deleted items in the response.
If you use a programming language that supports concurrency, such as Java, you can use threads to write items in parallel. Your application must include the necessary logic to manage the threads. With languages that don't support threading, such as PHP, you must update or delete the specified items one at a time. In both situations, BatchWriteItem provides an alternative where the API performs the specified put and delete operations in parallel, giving you the power of the thread pool approach without having to introduce complexity into your application.
Parallel processing reduces latency, but each specified put and delete request consumes the same number of write capacity units whether it is processed in parallel or not. Delete operations on nonexistent items consume one write capacity unit.
If one or more of the following is true, DynamoDB rejects the entire batch write operation:
One or more tables specified in the BatchWriteItem request does not exist.
Primary key attributes specified on an item in the request do not match those in the corresponding table's primary key schema.
You try to perform multiple operations on the same item in the same BatchWriteItem request. For example, you cannot put and delete the same item in the same BatchWriteItem request.
There are more than 25 requests in the batch.
Any individual item in a batch exceeds 400 KB.
The total request size exceeds 16 MB.
batchWriteItem in interface AmazonDynamoDBrequestItems - A map of one or more table names and, for each
table, a list of operations to be performed (DeleteRequest or
PutRequest). Each element in the map consists of the following:
DeleteRequest - Perform a DeleteItem operation on the specified item. The item to be deleted is identified by a Key subelement:
Key - A map of primary key attribute values that uniquely identify the ! item. Each entry in this map consists of an attribute name and an attribute value. For each primary key, you must provide all of the key attributes. For example, with a hash type primary key, you only need to specify the hash attribute. For a hash-and-range type primary key, you must specify both the hash attribute and the range attribute.
PutRequest - Perform a PutItem operation on the specified item. The item to be put is identified by an Item subelement:
Item - A map of attributes and their values. Each entry in this map consists of an attribute name and an attribute value. Attribute values must not be null; string and binary type attributes must have lengths greater than zero; and set type attributes must not be empty. Requests that contain empty values will be rejected with a ValidationException exception.
If you specify any attributes that are part of an index key, then the data types for those attributes must match those of the schema in the table's attribute definition.

Returns information about the table, including the current status of the table, when it was created, the primary key schema, and any indexes on the table.
NOTE: If you issue a DescribeTable request immediately after a CreateTable request, DynamoDB might return a ResourceNotFoundException. This is because DescribeTable uses an eventually consistent query, and the metadata for your table might not be available at that moment. Wait for a few seconds, and then try the DescribeTable request again.

The GetItem operation returns a set of attributes for the item with the given primary key. If there is no matching item, GetItem does not return any data.
GetItem provides an eventually consistent read by default. If
your application requires a strongly consistent read, set
ConsistentRead to true . Although a strongly

Deletes a single item in a table by primary key. You can perform a conditional delete operation that deletes the item if it exists, or if it has an expected attribute value.
In addition to deleting an item, you can also return the item's attribute values in the same operation, using the ReturnValues parameter.
Unless you specify conditions, the DeleteItem is an idempotent operation; running it multiple times on the same item or attribute does not result in an error response.
Conditional deletes are useful for deleting items only if specific conditions are met. If those conditions are met, DynamoDB performs the delete. Otherwise, the item is not deleted.

The CreateTable operation adds a new table to your account. In an AWS account, table names must be unique within each region. That is, you can have two tables with same name if you create the tables in different regions.
CreateTable is an asynchronous operation. Upon receiving a
CreateTable request, DynamoDB immediately returns a response
with a TableStatus of CREATING . After the table
is created, DynamoDB sets the TableStatus to
ACTIVE . You can perform read and write operations only
on an ACTIVE table.
If you want to create multiple tables with secondary indexes on them,
you must create them sequentially. Only one table with secondary
indexes can be in the CREATING state at any given time.
You can use the DescribeTable API to check the table status.
createTable in interface AmazonDynamoDBattributeDefinitions - An array of attributes that describe the
key schema for the table and indexes.tableName - The name of the table to create.keySchema - Specifies the attributes that make up the primary key
for a table or an index. The attributes in KeySchema must also
be defined in the AttributeDefinitions array. For more
information, see Data
Model in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide. Each KeySchemaElement in the array is composed of:
AttributeName - The name of this key attribute.
KeyType - Determines whether the key attribute is
HASH or RANGE.
For a primary
key that consists of a hash attribute, you must specify exactly one
element with a KeyType of HASH.
For a primary
key that consists of hash and range attributes, you must specify
exactly two elements, in this order: The first element must have a
KeyType of HASH, and the second element must have
a KeyType of RANGE.
For more information, see Specifying the Primary Key in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.

Creates a new item, or replaces an old item with a new item. If an item that has the same primary key as the new item already exists in the specified table, the new item completely replaces the existing item. You can perform a conditional put operation (add a new item if one with the specified primary key doesn't exist), or replace an existing item if it has certain attribute values.
In addition to putting an item, you can also return the item's attribute values in the same operation, using the ReturnValues parameter.
When you add an item, the primary key attribute(s) are the only required attributes. Attribute values cannot be null. String and Binary type attributes must have lengths greater than zero. Set type attributes cannot be empty. Requests with empty values will be rejected with a ValidationException exception.
You can request that PutItem return either a copy of the original item (before the update) or a copy of the updated item (after the update). For more information, see the ReturnValues description below.
NOTE: To prevent a new item from replacing an existing item, use a conditional put operation with ComparisonOperator set to NULL for the primary key attribute, or attributes.

You must provide all of the attributes for the primary key. For example, with a hash type primary key, you only need to specify the hash attribute. For a hash-and-range type primary key, you must specify both the hash attribute and the range attribute.
If you specify any attributes that are part of an index key, then the data types for those attributes must match those of the schema in the table's attribute definition.
For more information about primary keys, see Primary Key in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.
Each element in the Item map is an AttributeValue object.
returnValues - Use ReturnValues if you want to get the
item attributes as they appeared before they were updated with the
PutItem request. For PutItem, the valid values are: NONE - If ReturnValues is not specified,
or if its value is NONE, then nothing is returned. (This
setting is the default for ReturnValues.)
ALL_OLD - If PutItem overwrote an attribute
name-value pair, then the content of the old item is returned.

Edits an existing item's attributes, or adds a new item to the table if it does not already exist. You can put, delete, or add attribute values. You can also perform a conditional update (insert a new attribute name-value pair if it doesn't exist, or replace an existing name-value pair if it has certain expected attribute values).
You can also return the item's attribute values in the same UpdateItem operation using the ReturnValues parameter.
updateItem in interface AmazonDynamoDBtableName - The name of the table containing the item to update.key - The primary key of the item to be updated. Each element
consists of an attribute name and a value for that attribute. For the primary key, you must provide all of the attributes. For example, with a hash type primary key, you only need to specify the hash attribute. For a hash-and-range type primary key, you must specify both the hash attribute and the range attribute.
attributeUpdates - There is a newer parameter available. Use UpdateExpression instead. Note that if you use AttributeUpdates and UpdateExpression at the same time, DynamoDB will return a ValidationException exception.
This parameter can be used for modifying top-level attributes; however, it does not support individual list or map elements.
The names of attributes to be modified, the action to perform on each, and the new value for each. If you are updating an attribute that is an index key attribute for any indexes on that table, the attribute type must match the index key type defined in the AttributesDefinition of the table description. You can use UpdateItem to update any nonkey attributes.
Attribute values cannot be null. String and Binary type attributes must have lengths greater than zero. Set type attributes must not be empty. Requests with empty values will be rejected with a ValidationException exception.
Each AttributeUpdates element consists of an attribute name to modify, along with the following:
Value - The new value, if applicable, for this attribute.
Action - A value that specifies how to perform
the update. This action is only valid for an existing attribute whose
data type is Number or is a set; do not use ADD for other
data types.
If an item with the specified primary key is found in the table, the following values perform the following actions:
PUT - Adds the specified attribute to the item.
If the attribute already exists, it is replaced by the new value.
DELETE - Removes the attribute and its
value, if no value is specified for DELETE. The data type
of the specified value must match the existing value's data type.
If a set of values is specified, then those values are subtracted
from the old set. For example, if the attribute value was the set
[a,b,c] and the DELETE action specifies
[a,c], then the final attribute value is
[b]. Specifying an empty set is an error.
ADD - Adds the specified value to the item, if the
attribute does not already exist. If the attribute does exist, then
the behavior of ADD depends on the data type of the
attribute:
If the existing attribute is a number, and if
Value is also a number, then Value is mathematically
added to the existing attribute. If Value is a negative number,
then it is subtracted from the existing attribute. If you
use Similarly, if you use ADD to increment or decrement a number value for an
item that doesn't exist before the update, DynamoDB uses 0 as the
initial value. ADD for an
existing item to increment or decrement an attribute value that
doesn't exist before the update, DynamoDB uses 0 as the
initial value. For example, suppose that the item you want to update
doesn't have an attribute named itemcount, but you decide to
ADD the number 3 to this attribute anyway.
DynamoDB will create the itemcount attribute, set its initial
value to 0, and finally add 3 to it. The
result will be a new itemcount attribute, with a value of
3.
If the existing data type is a
set, and if Value is also a set, then Value is appended
to the existing set. For example, if the attribute value is the set
[1,2], and the ADD action specified
[3], then the final attribute value is
[1,2,3]. An error occurs if an ADD action is
specified for a set attribute and the attribute type specified does
not match the existing set type.
Both sets must have the same primitive data type. For example, if the existing data type is a set of strings, Value must also be a set of strings.
If no item with the specified key is found in the table, the following values perform the following actions:
PUT - Causes DynamoDB to create a new item with the
specified primary key, and then adds the attribute.
DELETE - Causes nothing to happen; there is no
attribute to delete.
ADD - Causes DynamoDB
to creat an item with the supplied primary key and number (or set of
numbers) for the attribute value. The only data types allowed are
Number and Number Set.
If you specify any attributes that are part of an index key, then the data types for those attributes must match those of the schema in the table's attribute definition.

The BatchGetItem operation returns the attributes of one or more items from one or more tables. You identify requested items by primary key.
A single operation can retrieve up to 16 MB of data, which can contain as many as 100 items. BatchGetItem will return a partial result if the response size limit is exceeded, the table's provisioned throughput is exceeded, or an internal processing failure occurs. If a partial result is returned, the operation returns a value for UnprocessedKeys . You can use this value to retry the operation starting with the next item to get.
For example, if you ask to retrieve 100 items, but each individual item is 300 KB in size, the system returns 52 items (so as not to exceed the 16 MB limit). It also returns an appropriate UnprocessedKeys value so you can get the next page of results. If desired, your application can include its own logic to assemble the pages of results into one data set.
If none of the items can be processed due to insufficient provisioned throughput on all of the tables in the request, then BatchGetItem will return a ProvisionedThroughputExceededException . If at least one of the items is successfully processed, then BatchGetItem completes successfully, while returning the keys of the unread items in UnprocessedKeys .
IMPORTANT: If DynamoDB returns any unprocessed items, you should retry the batch operation on those items. However, we strongly recommend that you use an exponential backoff algorithm. If you retry the batch operation immediately, the underlying read or write requests can still fail due to throttling on the individual tables. If you delay the batch operation using exponential backoff, the individual requests in the batch are much more likely to succeed. For more information, go to Batch Operations and Error Handling in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.
By default, BatchGetItem performs eventually consistent reads
on every table in the request. If you want strongly consistent reads
instead, you can set ConsistentRead to true for
any or all tables.
In order to minimize response latency, BatchGetItem retrieves items in parallel.
When designing your application, keep in mind that DynamoDB does not return attributes in any particular order. To help parse the response by item, include the primary key values for the items in your request in the AttributesToGet parameter.
If a requested item does not exist, it is not returned in the result. Requests for nonexistent items consume the minimum read capacity units according to the type of read. For more information, see Capacity Units Calculations in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide .
batchGetItem in interface AmazonDynamoDBrequestItems - A map of one or more table names and, for each
table, the corresponding primary keys for the items to retrieve. Each
table name can be invoked only once. Each element in the map consists of the following:
Keys - An array of primary key attribute values that define specific items in the table. For each primary key, you must provide all of the key attributes. For example, with a hash type primary key, you only need to specify the hash attribute. For a hash-and-range type primary key, you must specify both the hash attribute and the range attribute.
AttributesToGet - One or more attributes to be retrieved from the table. By default, all attributes are returned. If a specified attribute is not found, it does not appear in the result.
Note that AttributesToGet has no effect on provisioned throughput consumption. DynamoDB determines capacity units consumed based on item size, not on the amount of data that is returned to an application.
ConsistentRead - If true, a strongly consistent
read is used; if false (the default), an eventually
consistent read is used.
returnConsumedCapacity - A value that if set to
TOTAL, the response includes ConsumedCapacity data
for tables and indexes. If set to INDEXES, the response
includes ConsumedCapacity for indexes. If set to
NONE (the default), ConsumedCapacity is not
included in the response.ResourceNotFoundExceptionProvisionedThroughputExceededExceptionInternalServerErrorExceptioncom.amazonaws.AmazonClientException - If any internal errors are encountered inside the client while
