PynamoDB is a Python library providing a simple, elegant, model-based interface to Amazon's DynamoDB NoSQL database. It abstracts DynamoDB's verbose API with declarative models, query and scan operations, and table management.

Use cases

  • interact with dynamodb from python
  • define dynamodb tables as python models
  • query and scan dynamodb tables with filter expressions
  • create and manage dynamodb tables programmatically
  • replace boto3's verbose dynamodb api with a cleaner interface

When to choose

  • you use DynamoDB in Python and want a model-based, Django-ORM-like API
  • you need query/scan with typed attributes and condition expressions
  • you want table creation and lifecycle managed from code

When to avoid

  • you need fine-grained control over every DynamoDB API parameter
  • you use a different database or only need raw low-level boto3 calls
  • you need an ORM for relational SQL databases
