Setting up locally

AWS provide a version of DynamoDB for local installation. It supports the creation of an application without the web services or connection. It reduces provisioned throughput, data storage, and transfers by allowing local databases. When we are ready for deployment, we can make some changes for it to be used with AWS.

To use DynamoDB locally, we have to use the .jar executable file. We can download .tar or .zip, based on the operating system we are using. For the Unix OS, we have to use .tar, and for Windows, we have to download a .zip file.

Use the following links to download the respective files:
