Question: How many secondary indexes are allowed per table DynamoDB?
Answered by Rafal Wilinski
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.
