Hash table
• Hash key uniquely identifies an item
• Hash key is used for building an unordered hash index
• Table can be partitioned for scale

Name = Andy
Dept = Engg

Hash-range table
• Hash key and range key together uniquely identify an Item
• Within unordered hash index, data is sorted by the range key
• No limit on the number of items (∞) per hash key
– Except if you have local secondary indexes

Indexes

13.
Local secondary index (LSI)
• Alternate range key attribute
• Index is local to a hash key (or partition)

14.
Global secondary index (GSI)

• Index is across all table hash keys (partitions)

If GSIs don’t have enough write capacity, table writes will be throttled!

16.
LSI or GSI?
• LSI can be modeled as a GSI
• If data size in an item collection > 10 GB, use GSI
• If eventual consistency is okay for your
scenario, use GSI!

17.
Scaling

18.
Scaling
• Throughput
– Provision any amount of throughput to a table
• Size
– Add any number of items to a table
• Max item size is 400 KB
• LSIs limit the number of range keys due to 10 GB limit
• Scaling is achieved through partitioning

19.
Throughput
• Provisioned at the table level
– Write capacity units (WCUs) are measured in 1 KB per second
– Read capacity units (RCUs) are measured in 4 KB per second
• RCUs measure strictly consistent reads
• Eventually consistent reads cost 1/2 of consistent reads
• Read and write throughput limits are
independent

Partitioning math
# 𝑜𝑓 𝑃𝑎𝑟𝑡𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑠 =
𝑇𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑒 𝑆𝑖𝑧𝑒 𝑖𝑛 𝐺𝐵
10 𝐺𝐵(𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑠𝑖𝑧𝑒)
# 𝑜𝑓 𝑃𝑎𝑟𝑡𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑠
(𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑡ℎ𝑟𝑜𝑢𝑔ℎ𝑝𝑢𝑡)
=
𝑅𝐶𝑈𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑑𝑠
3000 𝑅𝐶𝑈
+
𝑊𝐶𝑈𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑤𝑟𝑖𝑡𝑒𝑠
1000 𝑊𝐶𝑈
(𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑡ℎ𝑟𝑜𝑢𝑔ℎ𝑝𝑢𝑡)(𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑠𝑖𝑧𝑒)(𝑡𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙)
In the future, these details might change…

21.
Partitioning example
# 𝑜𝑓 𝑃𝑎𝑟𝑡𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑠 =
8 𝐺𝐵
10 𝐺𝐵
= 0.8 = 1
(𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑠𝑖𝑧𝑒)
# 𝑜𝑓 𝑃𝑎𝑟𝑡𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑠
(𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑡ℎ𝑟𝑜𝑢𝑔ℎ𝑝𝑢𝑡)
=
5000 𝑅𝐶𝑈
3000 𝑅𝐶𝑈
+
500 𝑊𝐶𝑈
1000 𝑊𝐶𝑈
= 2.17 = 3
Table size = 8 GB, RCUs = 5000, WCUs = 500
(𝑡𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙)
RCUs per partition = 5000/3 = 1666.67
WCUs per partition = 500/3 = 166.67
Data/partition = 10/3 = 3.33 GB
RCUs and WCUs are uniformly
spread across partitions

22.
Getting the most out of DynamoDB throughput
“To get the most out of
DynamoDB throughput, create
tables where the hash key
element has a large number of
distinct values, and values are
requested fairly uniformly, as
randomly as possible.”
—DynamoDB Developer Guide
• Space: access is evenly
spread over the key-space
• Time: requests arrive evenly
spaced in time

23.
Example: hot keys
Partition
Time
Heat

24.
Example: periodic spike

25.
How does DynamoDB handle bursts?
• DynamoDB saves 300 seconds of unused
capacity per partition
• This is used when a partition runs out of
provisioned throughput due to bursts
– Provided excess capacity is available at the node

26.
Burst capacity is built-in

1200
1600
CapacityUnits
Time
Provisioned Consumed
“Save up” unused capacity
Consume saved up capacity
Burst capacity: 300 seconds
(1200 × 300 = 3600 CU)

27.
Burst capacity may not be sufficient

800
1200

CapacityUnits
Time
Provisioned Consumed Attempted
Burst capacity: 300 seconds
(1200 × 300 = 3600 CU)
Throttled requests
Don’t completely depend on burst capacity… provision sufficient throughput

28.
What causes throttling?
• If sustained throughput goes beyond
provisioned throughput per partition
• From the example before:
– Table created with 5000 RCUs, 500 WCUs
– RCUs per partition = 1666.67
– WCUs per partition = 166.67
– If sustained throughput > (1666 RCUs or 166 WCUs) per key or
partition, DynamoDB may throttle requests
• Solution: Increase provisioned throughput

29.
What causes throttling?
• Non-uniform workloads
– Hot keys/hot partitions
– Very large bursts
• Dilution of throughout across partitions caused
by mixing hot data with cold data
– Use a table per time period for storing time series data so WCUs
and RCUs are applied to the hot data set

30.
Data Modeling
Store data based on how you will access it!

31.
1:1 relationships or key-values
• Use a table or GSI with a hash key
• Use GetItem or BatchGetItem API
Example: Given a user or email, get attributes
Users Table
Hash key Attributes
UserId = bob Email = bob@gmail.com, JoinDate = 2011-11-15
UserId = fred Email = fred@yahoo.com, JoinDate = 2011-12-01
Users-Email-GSI
Hash key Attributes
Email = bob@gmail.com UserId = bob, JoinDate = 2011-11-15
Email = fred@yahoo.com UserId = fred, JoinDate = 2011-12-01

32.
1:N relationships or parent-children
• Use a table or GSI with hash and range key
• Use Query API
Example:
– Given a device, find all readings between epoch X, Y
Device-measurements
Hash Key Range key Attributes
DeviceId = 1 epoch = 5513A97C Temperature = 30, pressure = 90
DeviceId = 1 epoch = 5513A9DB Temperature = 30, pressure = 90

33.
N:M relationships
• Use a table and GSI with hash and range key
elements switched
• Use Query API
Example: Given a user, find all games. Or given a
game, find all users.
User-Games-Table
Hash Key Range key
UserId = bob GameId = Game1
UserId = fred GameId = Game2
UserId = bob GameId = Game3
Game-Users-GSI
Hash Key Range key
GameId = Game1 UserId = bob
GameId = Game2 UserId = fred
GameId = Game3 UserId = bob

34.
Documents (JSON)
• New data types (M, L, BOOL,
NULL) introduced to support
JSON
• Document SDKs
– Simple programming model
– Conversion to/from JSON
– Java, JavaScript, Ruby, .NET
• Cannot index (S,N) elements
of a JSON object stored in M
– They need to be modeled as
top-level table attributes to be
used in LSIs and GSIs
Javascript DynamoDB
string S
number N
boolean BOOL
null NULL
array L
object M

35.
Rich expressions
• Projection expression
– Query/Get/Scan: ProductReviews.FiveStar[0]
• Filter expression
– Query/Scan: #V > :num (#V is a place holder for keyword VIEWS)
• Conditional expression
– Put/Update/DeleteItem: attribute_not_exists (#pr.FiveStar)
• Update expression
– UpdateItem: set Replies = Replies + :num

Current table
Older tables
HotdataColddata
Don’t mix hot and cold data; archive cold data to Amazon S3

39.
Use a table per time period
• Pre-create daily, weekly, monthly tables
• Provision required throughput for current table
• Writes go to the current table
• Turn off (or reduce) throughput for older tables
