Amazon DynamoDB Connector v1.4

Anypoint Connector for Amazon DynamoDB (Amazon DynamoDB Connector) provides connectivity to the
Amazon DynamoDB API. Amazon DynamoDB is a fully managed NoSQL database service that provides fast
and predictable performance with seamless scalability.

For compatibility information and fixed issues, see the
[Amazon DynamoDB Connector Release Notes](https://docs.mulesoft.com/release-notes/connector/amazon-dynamodb-connector-release-notes-mule-4)

## Common Use Cases for the Connector

Amazon DynamoDB Connector enables you to interact with Amazon DynamoDB to create a database table
that can:

- Store and retrieve any amount of data

- Serve any level of request traffic

- Automatically distribute the data and traffic for the table over a sufficient number of servers to
  manage the request capacity and the amount of data stored.

  Amazon Dynamo DB Connector does this while maintaining consistent, fast performance.
