Is this a serious project? Can I run it in production?
No, it is not a serious project, just a hobby project which turned out to be a funny programming exercise. Technically it could be run in production but there's little sense in doing so. You may incur in AWS costs. No guarantee is provided.
Is this project affiliated with AWS?
No, it is not. It is a project created by Alvaro Hernandez, founder of OnGres and AWS Data Hero. There's no affiliation with Amazon AWS and this is not a project nor a service by AWS. "Amazon Web Services", "AWS" and "DynamoDB" are registered trademarks of Amazon Technologies, Inc.
Are there any limitations compared to DynamoDB?
Yes, see Limitations.
What's this software license? Can I run this as-a-Service?
The project is licensed under the AGPLv3 Open Source license.
There would be very little sense in running Dyna53 as-a-Service, but it could be done. AGPLv3 license terms ensure that the project will remain Open Source for its users, so if you would run a modified version of it your users would have the right to get a copy of the modified source code.
How far will be Dyna53 be developed? Are contributions accepted?
Dyna53 is just an excercise and there should be little expectations that it will be developed much further. It is a non-goal to emulate DynamoDB completely.
Contributions are welcomed, though, specially in polishing and testing the existing code, more than adding new features.
Is there an Easter Egg in the program?
Yes! If you have found it, please open an issue to discuss it :)
