💼 [DynamoDB.1] DynamoDB tables should automatically scale capacity with demand

  • ID: /frameworks/aws-fsbp-v1.0.0/dynamodb/01

Description

Scaling capacity with demand avoids throttling exceptions, which helps to maintain availability of your applications. DynamoDB tables that use on-demand capacity mode are limited only by the DynamoDB throughput default table quotas. To raise these quotas, you can file a support ticket with Support. DynamoDB tables that use provisioned mode with auto scaling adjust the provisioned throughput capacity dynamically in response to traffic patterns.
