QUESTION

An small online retailer is using DynamoDB to support its e-commerce shopping carts.

Based on peak shopping traffic, they are expecting 10,000 objects per second of 5KB write and 40,000 objects per second of 3KB read. Strongly consistent reads are required.

What should the corresponding e-commerce cart table be configured with?

a) WCU = 80,000, RCU = 160,000

b) WCU = 80,000, RCU = 120,000

c) WCU = 50,000, RCU = 120,000

d) WCU = 50,000 RCU = 160,000

QUESTION

Which of the following are is a valid way of using DynamoDB with large objects?

a) Store the file in S3 and reference the S3 key in a DynamoDB attribute

b) Split the file into multiple objects of 400KB, using DynamoDB multipartID

c) Under no circumstance use DynamoDB with files larger than 400KB

d) Store the file in S3, adding DynamoDB tag

a) Incorrect. TTL does not use up WCU/RCU so would not cause the exception
b) Correct. This table has been poorly partitioned and there is a good chance of a ‘hot partition’ due to high demand for a particular game in a specific country. User_ID would have provided much higher cardinality and a better key, with less chance of exceptions.
c) Incorrect. In fact DynamoDB Acceleration (caching) may help mitigate the risk of exceptions, and will definitely not contribute to this particular exception.
d) Correct. Scans can consume a lot of RCU
