The AWS SDK for Java provides a `DynamoDBMapper` class, allowing you to map your client-side classes to DynamoDB tables. To use `DynamoDBMapper`, you define the relationship between items in a DynamoDB table and their corresponding object instances in your code. The `DynamoDBMapper` class enables you to perform various create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) operations on items, and run queries and scans against tables.

To learn more about how to use `DynamoDBMapper`, see [DynamoDB Examples Using the AWS SDK for Java ](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-java/v1/developer-guide/examples-dynamodb.html) in the *AWS SDK for Java 1.x Developer Guide*.
