A company currently is using DynamoDB as their data store. A new application is being introduced wherein the data items vary in size from 1MB to 10 MB. What are the options available for the company for the storage of the data for the new application in the most efficient manner. Choose 2 answers from the options given below

Answer options:

A.Compress the data item if possible
B.Split the data item and store the parts as multiple items in the table
C.Store the items in S3 and place a link as an attribute in DynamoDB
D.Store the items in Redshift and place a link as an attribute in DynamoDB

Answer – A and C
The AWS Documentation mentions the following
Amazon DynamoDB currently limits the size of each item that you store in a table (see Limits in DynamoDB). If your application needs to store more data in an item than the DynamoDB size limit permits, you can try compressing one or more large attributes, or you can store them as an object in Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) and store the Amazon S3 object identifier in your DynamoDB item.
Option B is incorrect since this would add a maintenance overhead
Option D is incorrect since there are no clear requirements to use Redshift for data storage
For more information on using S3 with DynamoDB, please refer to the below URL
