Error: dynamodb streams missing events
Answered by Rafal Wilinski
What's Causing This Error
This error message indicates an issue with the DynamoDB Streams feature.
Specifically, it indicates that events are missing from the stream. This can happen if the DynamoDB Streams feature is not enabled for the table, if the stream's buffer is full and unable to accept new events, or if there is a bug or an issue with the stream's configuration.
Solution: Here's How To Resolve It
To solve this error, check that the DynamoDB Streams feature is enabled for the table. You can enable streams on a table using the AWS Management Console, the AWS CLI, or the SDKs.
You can also check the stream's buffer and ensure it is not full. If the buffer is full, you can increase its size. You can check the stream configuration by running the following command:
aws dynamodb describe-table --table-name
