Question: How many secondary indexes are allowed per table DynamoDB?
Answer
Secondary indexes are required to extend the access patterns in your database. It can be implemented via a Global or Local Secondary Index.
A Global Secondary Index supports a new pair of Hash, and Range Keys, while a Local Secondary Index creates an index using the existing Hash Key against a new Range Key.
Developers can create up to 20 global secondary indexes and 5 local secondary indexes per table.
