replicaSpecifications

The optional Amazon Web Services Region specific settings of a multi-Region table. These settings overwrite the general settings of the table for the specified Region.

For a multi-Region table in provisioned capacity mode, you can configure the table's read capacity differently for each Region's replica. The write capacity, however, remains synchronized between all replicas to ensure that there's enough capacity to replicate writes across all Regions. To define the read capacity for a table replica in a specific Region, you can do so by configuring the following parameters.

  • region: The Region where these settings are applied. (Required)

  • readCapacityUnits: The provisioned read capacity units. (Optional)

  • readCapacityAutoScaling: The read capacity auto scaling settings for the table. (Optional)
