Restore incremental backups? #67

Closed abhayachauhan closed 8 years ago

abhayachauhan commented 8 years ago

Love the incremental backups to S3 that works really well.

What do you use for restoring these incremental backups?

i.e - Latest copy from S3 restored to DynamoDb, or Restoring a point in time from S3 to DynamoDb.

abhayachauhan commented 8 years ago

I've decided to build a tool which allows us to restore S3 incremental backups to any point in time.

:+1: Thanks for the link. We've performed one-off restores on individual records using the CLI tools in this repo, larger restores using customized scripts with help from https://github.com/mapbox/dynamodb-migrator, and full-table restores from snapshots generated by this repo's snapshot tools.

@rclark Mind sharing the scripts you used to restore using dynamodb-migrator? Sorry for bringing back such an old post, but the use case looks interesting.
