Question: Can glue write to DynamoDB?

Answered by Rafal Wilinski
Answer
Yes, Glue can write to DynamoDB. Glue provides a Data Catalog for storing and managing metadata for data stored in various data stores, such as DynamoDB. You can create Glue Crawlers to scan your data stored in DynamoDB and create table definitions in the Glue Data Catalog. You can also use Glue ETL jobs to read data from DynamoDB and write it to other data stores, or you can use Glue Python or Scala code to read and write data directly to DynamoDB.
