dynamodb_update_table: Modifies the provisioned throughput settings, global secondary indexes, or DynamoDB Streams settings for a given table

Description

Modifies the provisioned throughput settings, global secondary indexes, or DynamoDB Streams settings for a given table.

Usage

dynamodb_update_table(AttributeDefinitions, TableName, BillingMode,
  ProvisionedThroughput, GlobalSecondaryIndexUpdates, StreamSpecification,
  SSESpecification)

Arguments

AttributeDefinitions

An array of attributes that describe the key schema for the table and indexes. If you are adding a new global secondary index to the table, AttributeDefinitions must include the key element(s) of the new index.

TableName

[required] The name of the table to be updated.

BillingMode

Controls how you are charged for read and write throughput and how you manage capacity. When switching from pay-per-request to provisioned capacity, initial provisioned capacity values must be set. The initial provisioned capacity values are estimated based on the consumed read and write capacity of your table and global secondary indexes over the past 30 minutes.

  • PROVISIONED - Sets the billing mode to PROVISIONED. We recommend using PROVISIONED for predictable workloads.

  • PAY_PER_REQUEST - Sets the billing mode to PAY_PER_REQUEST. We recommend using PAY_PER_REQUEST for unpredictable workloads.

ProvisionedThroughput

The new provisioned throughput settings for the specified table or index.

GlobalSecondaryIndexUpdates

An array of one or more global secondary indexes for the table. For each index in the array, you can request one action:

  • Create - add a new global secondary index to the table.

  • Update - modify the provisioned throughput settings of an existing global secondary index.

  • Delete - remove a global secondary index from the table.

For more information, see Managing Global Secondary Indexes in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.

StreamSpecification

Represents the DynamoDB Streams configuration for the table.

You receive a ResourceInUseException if you try to enable a stream on a table that already has a stream, or if you try to disable a stream on a table that doesn't have a stream.

SSESpecification

The new server-side encryption settings for the specified table.

Details

You can only perform one of the following operations at once:

  • Modify the provisioned throughput settings of the table.

  • Enable or disable DynamoDB Streams on the table.

  • Remove a global secondary index from the table.

  • Create a new global secondary index on the table. After the index begins backfilling, you can use UpdateTable to perform other operations.

UpdateTable is an asynchronous operation; while it is executing, the table status changes from ACTIVE to UPDATING. While it is UPDATING, you cannot issue another UpdateTable request. When the table returns to the ACTIVE state, the UpdateTable operation is complete.

Examples

Run this code
# NOT RUN {
# This example increases the provisioned read and write capacity on the
# Music table.
# }
# NOT RUN {
svc$update_table(
  ProvisionedThroughput = list(
    ReadCapacityUnits = 10L,
    WriteCapacityUnits = 10L
  ),
  TableName = "MusicCollection"
)
# }
# NOT RUN {
# }
