What is Dynamok?

Dynamok is a library providing automatic provisioned throughput scaling for Amazon's DynamoDB service. This allows you to lower provisioned throughput for a Dynamo table when usage is low and automatically increase it when usage is high.

Dynamok shares much in common with https://github.com/sebdah/dynamic-dynamodb. The main difference is that dynamok is a Java library where as dynamic-dynamodb is a python service. Since this is a Java library, it can be easier to integrate to an existing Java service, and allows easy on-the-fly configuration changes from Java (or other JVM languages).

Dynamok is written in Kotlin, and is fully compatible with Java.

Example Usage

For more detailed information about including and using Dynamok in your project, see the Documentation section.

Dynamok provides a single service (DynamoScalingService) which is responsible for periodically polling Cloud Watch and updating throughput if necessary. All that is required is to start the service and register your table(s).

// Create and start the service
ScalingServiceConfig serviceConfig = new ScalingServiceConfig();
AWSCredentials credentials = new BasicAWSCredentials(accessKey, secretAccessKey);
DynamoScalingService service = new DynamoScalingService(serviceConfig,
                                                        new AWSClientFactory(credentials));
service.start();

// Add a table to watch
IndexScalingConfig indexConfig = new IndexScalingConfig(DynamoIndex("users", ""));
service.addIndex(indexConfig);

The above code starts the service, then adds the table "users" to watch. "users" will be polled every five minutes by default (configurable in the ScalingServiceConfig). If throughput consumption meets certain criteria (specified in IndexScalingConfig), the throughput will be updated.
