The AWS::DynamoDB::Table resource creates a DynamoDB table. For more information, see CreateTable in the Amazon DynamoDB API Reference .

You should be aware of the following behaviors when working with DynamoDB tables:

  • AWS CloudFormation typically creates DynamoDB tables in parallel. However, if your template includes multiple DynamoDB tables with indexes, you must declare dependencies so that the tables are created sequentially. Amazon DynamoDB limits the number of tables with secondary indexes that are in the creating state. If you create multiple tables with indexes at the same time, DynamoDB returns an error and the stack operation fails. For an example, see DynamoDB Table with a DependsOn Attribute .

Our guidance is to use the latest schema documented for your AWS CloudFormation templates. This schema supports the provisioning of all table settings below. When using this schema in your AWS CloudFormation templates, please ensure that your Identity and Access Management ( IAM ) policies are updated with appropriate permissions to allow for the authorization of these setting changes.

Example: 

 // The code below shows an example of how to instantiate this type.
 // The values are placeholders you should change.
 import software.amazon.awscdk.services.dynamodb.*;
