Question: Can Django use DynamoDB?

Answered by Rafal Wilinski

Yes, Django can be configured to use DynamoDB as its database backend through a third-party package called "django-dynamodb-engine". This package allows Django to communicate with DynamoDB and interact with its data through Django's standard ORM (Object-Relational Mapping) interface.
