Question: Is DynamoDB ACID compliant?
Answered by Rafal Wilinski
Answer
Out of the box, DynamoDB does not support ACID operations. However, developers can use Transactions in DynamoDB to achieve atomicity, consistency, isolation and durability in its GET, PUT, UPDATE or DELETE operations.Hence, the answer to the question would be yes. DynamoDB aims to be ACID-compliant with its use of Transactions.
