Alternator allows arbitrary provisioning changes #27

Open ingojaeckel opened 12 years ago

ingojaeckel commented 12 years ago

DynamoDB only allows to (1) decrease provisioning throughput to 10% minimum once a day and/or (2) increase the provisioned throughput up to 100% in one step. Alternator is inconsistent with the AWS SDK implementation of Dynamo since it just updates the provisioning throughput to whatever the user suggests without checking those constraints.

You are right, Alternator doesn't handle provisioned throughput at all, we'd rather focus on completion of the other features that we deem more important for our application ( scan / query ) before looking into it. Feel free to add the throughput implementation if you need it !

Thanks ;-)
