This course provides in-depth knowledge of DynamoDB, which is a fast NoSQL database service provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS). With the rapid adoption of IoT devices and the prevalence of machine learning applications, the storage of information and the speed of interaction becomes critical. DyanmoDB is a storage system that can handle millions of transactions per second without affecting user experience. 

In this course, you’ll start by learning about the internal workings of DyanmoDb. Next, you’ll learn how DynamoDB scales the capacity based on the load. You’ll also learn to interact with DynamoDB and use the DynamoDB stream. And finally, you’ll learn about AWS services like DAX and Cloudwatch.

By the end of the course, you’ll have a working knowledge of DynamoDB, and you’ll be able to integrate DynamoDB with your applications.

DynamoDB: From Basic To Advance

DynamoDB requires the capacity to execute tasks related to writing. This capacity is called write capacity units (WCUs). In this lesson, we’re going to learn what they are, how to calculate them and dive into some considerations about them to be aware of when designing a system.

# What is a WCU?
A **write capacity unit (WCU)** is the measurement unit used by DynamoDB to provide the resources that it will use to support writes to our table. The measurement unit is defined by record size and time. The first part is time, which corresponds to 1 second. The second part is the record size, which corresponds to a fixed size of 1 KB. That being said, we can state that a WCU is defined by the capacity of writing a 1 KB record to a table in 1 second.


Learn about WCUs and how to calculate them.
