What's Causing This Error
This error occurs when the request rate is too high for DynamoDB to process with your provisioned throughput (WCU, RCU).
Solution: Here's How To Resolve It
There are a few ways to solve this error:
- Reduce the rate at which your requests are sent.
- In case of an error, do not immediately retry. Instead, use an exponential backoff algorithm for retries in DynamoDB.
- Increase the provisioned RCU and WCU to match the requirements.
- Create an autoscaling policy that automatically provides more throughput to keep up with the demand.
