 * Interface for accessing DynamoDB.

 * <p>
 * Amazon DynamoDB is a fully managed NoSQL database service that provides fast and predictable performance with
 * seamless scalability. DynamoDB lets you offload the administrative burdens of operating and scaling a distributed
 * database, so that you don't have to worry about hardware provisioning, setup and configuration, replication, software
 * patching, or cluster scaling.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * With DynamoDB, you can create database tables that can store and retrieve any amount of data, and serve any level of
 * request traffic. You can scale up or scale down your tables' throughput capacity without downtime or performance
 * degradation, and use the AWS Management Console to monitor resource utilization and performance metrics.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * DynamoDB automatically spreads the data and traffic for your tables over a sufficient number of servers to handle
 * your throughput and storage requirements, while maintaining consistent and fast performance. All of your data is
 * stored on solid state disks (SSDs) and automatically replicated across multiple Availability Zones in an AWS region,
 * providing built-in high availability and data durability.

     * The <code>BatchGetItem</code> operation returns the attributes of one or more items from one or more tables. You
     * identify requested items by primary key.
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * A single operation can retrieve up to 16 MB of data, which can contain as many as 100 items.
     * <code>BatchGetItem</code> returns a partial result if the response size limit is exceeded, the table's
     * provisioned throughput is exceeded, or an internal processing failure occurs. If a partial result is returned,
     * the operation returns a value for <code>UnprocessedKeys</code>. You can use this value to retry the operation
     * starting with the next item to get.
     * </p>
     * <important>
     * <p>
     * If you request more than 100 items, <code>BatchGetItem</code> returns a <code>ValidationException</code> with the
     * message "Too many items requested for the BatchGetItem call."
     * </p>
     * </important>
     * <p>
     * For example, if you ask to retrieve 100 items, but each individual item is 300 KB in size, the system returns 52
     * items (so as not to exceed the 16 MB limit). It also returns an appropriate <code>UnprocessedKeys</code> value so
     * you can get the next page of results. If desired, your application can include its own logic to assemble the
     * pages of results into one dataset.
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * If <i>none</i> of the items can be processed due to insufficient provisioned throughput on all of the tables in
     * the request, then <code>BatchGetItem</code> returns a <code>ProvisionedThroughputExceededException</code>. If
     * <i>at least one</i> of the items is successfully processed, then <code>BatchGetItem</code> completes
     * successfully, while returning the keys of the unread items in <code>UnprocessedKeys</code>.
     * </p>
     * <important>
     * <p>
     * If DynamoDB returns any unprocessed items, you should retry the batch operation on those items. However, <i>we
     * strongly recommend that you use an exponential backoff algorithm</i>. If you retry the batch operation
     * immediately, the underlying read or write requests can still fail due to throttling on the individual tables. If
     * you delay the batch operation using exponential backoff, the individual requests in the batch are much more
     * likely to succeed.
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * For more information, see <a
     * href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/ErrorHandling.html#BatchOperations">Batch
     * Operations and Error Handling</a> in the <i>Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide</i>.
     * </p>
     * </important>
     * <p>
     * By default, <code>BatchGetItem</code> performs eventually consistent reads on every table in the request. If you
     * want strongly consistent reads instead, you can set <code>ConsistentRead</code> to <code>true</code> for any or
     * all tables.
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * In order to minimize response latency, <code>BatchGetItem</code> retrieves items in parallel.
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * When designing your application, keep in mind that DynamoDB does not return items in any particular order. To
     * help parse the response by item, include the primary key values for the items in your request in the
     * <code>ProjectionExpression</code> parameter.
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * If a requested item does not exist, it is not returned in the result. Requests for nonexistent items consume the
     * minimum read capacity units according to the type of read. For more information, see <a href=

     * </p>
     * </important>
     * <p>
     * With <code>BatchWriteItem</code>, you can efficiently write or delete large amounts of data, such as from Amazon
     * EMR, or copy data from another database into DynamoDB. In order to improve performance with these large-scale
     * operations, <code>BatchWriteItem</code> does not behave in the same way as individual <code>PutItem</code> and
     * <code>DeleteItem</code> calls would. For example, you cannot specify conditions on individual put and delete
     * requests, and <code>BatchWriteItem</code> does not return deleted items in the response.
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * If you use a programming language that supports concurrency, you can use threads to write items in parallel. Your
     * application must include the necessary logic to manage the threads. With languages that don't support threading,
     * you must update or delete the specified items one at a time. In both situations, <code>BatchWriteItem</code>
     * performs the specified put and delete operations in parallel, giving you the power of the thread pool approach
     * without having to introduce complexity into your application.
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * Parallel processing reduces latency, but each specified put and delete request consumes the same number of write
     * capacity units whether it is processed in parallel or not. Delete operations on nonexistent items consume one
     * write capacity unit.
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * If one or more of the following is true, DynamoDB rejects the entire batch write operation:
     * </p>
     * <ul>
     * <li>
     * <p>
     * One or more tables specified in the <code>BatchWriteItem</code> request does not exist.
     * </p>
     * </li>
     * <li>
     * <p>
     * Primary key attributes specified on an item in the request do not match those in the corresponding table's
     * primary key schema.
     * </p>
     * </li>
     * <li>
     * <p>
     * You try to perform multiple operations on the same item in the same <code>BatchWriteItem</code> request. For
     * example, you cannot put and delete the same item in the same <code>BatchWriteItem</code> request.
     * </p>
     * </li>

     * provisioned for the table itself to your variables.
     * </p>
     * </li>
     * <li>
     * <p>

     * DynamoDB calculates the number of read capacity units consumed based on item size, not on the amount of data that
     * is returned to an application. The number of capacity units consumed will be the same whether you request all of
     * the attributes (the default behavior) or just some of them (using a projection expression). The number will also
     * be the same whether or not you use a <code>FilterExpression</code>.
     * </p>
     * </note>
     * <p>
     * <code>Query</code> results are always sorted by the sort key value. If the data type of the sort key is Number,
     * the results are returned in numeric order; otherwise, the results are returned in order of UTF-8 bytes. By
     * default, the sort order is ascending. To reverse the order, set the <code>ScanIndexForward</code> parameter to
     * false.
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * A single <code>Query</code> operation will read up to the maximum number of items set (if using the
     * <code>Limit</code> parameter) or a maximum of 1 MB of data and then apply any filtering to the results using
     * <code>FilterExpression</code>. If <code>LastEvaluatedKey</code> is present in the response, you will need to
     * paginate the result set. For more information, see <a
     * href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/Query.html#Query.Pagination">Paginating
     * the Results</a> in the <i>Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide</i>.
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * <code>FilterExpression</code> is applied after a <code>Query</code> finishes, but before the results are
     * returned. A <code>FilterExpression</code> cannot contain partition key or sort key attributes. You need to
     * specify those attributes in the <code>KeyConditionExpression</code>.
     * </p>
     * <note>
     * <p>
     * A <code>Query</code> operation can return an empty result set and a <code>LastEvaluatedKey</code> if all the
