Provides AWS CloudFormation patterns for DynamoDB tables, GSIs, LSIs, auto-scaling, and streams. Use when creating DynamoDB tables with CloudFormation, configuring primary keys, local/global secondary indexes, capacity modes (on-demand/provisioned), point-in-time recovery, encryption, TTL, and implementing template structure with Parameters, Outputs, Mappings, Conditions, cross-stack references.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# AWS CloudFormation DynamoDB Patterns

Provides production-ready NoSQL database infrastructure patterns using AWS CloudFormation templates with DynamoDB tables, GSIs, LSIs, auto-scaling, encryption, TTL, and streams.

## Overview

Covers DynamoDB tables, primary keys, secondary indexes (GSI/LSI), capacity modes, auto-scaling, encryption, TTL, streams, and best practices for parameters, outputs, and cross-stack references.

## When to Use

Creating DynamoDB tables, configuring keys and indexes, setting capacity modes, implementing auto-scaling, enabling encryption/TTL/streams, and organizing CloudFormation templates.

## Instructions

Follow these steps to create DynamoDB tables with CloudFormation:

1. **Define Table Parameters**: Specify table name and billing mode
2. **Configure Primary Key**: Set partition key and optional sort key
3. **Add Secondary Indexes**: Create GSIs for alternative access patterns
4. **Configure Encryption**: Enable encryption using KMS keys
5. **Set Up TTL**: Define timestamp attribute for automatic deletion
6. **Enable Streams**: Configure stream for change data capture

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add giuseppe-trisciuoglio/developer-kit/aws-cloudformation-dynamodb@sha256:c0de633bf4c31738

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260324.a02e282, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
