Database Reference
In-Depth Information
Now, by providing details for the given fields you can set up the Data Pipeline service.
Create the following objects:
1. The S3 bucket as the source for your data.
2. A DynamoDB table.
3. An SNS topic. Subscribe to it to receive notifications from AWS Data Pipeline re-
garding the status of your pipeline components.
Before transferring data between DynamoDB and S3, there are couples of points that you
need to keep in mind. They are as follows:
• At the time you import data from S3, it may overwrite your items in the Dy-
namoDB table, and exporting data from DynamoDB may overwrite data in the S3
bucket
• Import and export will consume some provisioned throughput capacity
• Be aware of the cost while importing and exporting as it will create an EMR
cluster for computation
