Question: Are DynamoDB table names globally unique?
Answered by Rafal Wilinski
Answer
The answer is both a Yes and a No. It's a "yes" because DynamoDB does not allow you to create tables with the same name in a specific region. However, it is a "no" as DynamoDB allows you to create a table with the same name across multiple regions.
