Amazon DynamoDB Adds Multi-Attribute Composite Keys to GSIs

🆕 Amazon DynamoDB now supports composite primary keys composed of up to eight attributes in global secondary indexes. Partition and sort keys can each include up to four attributes, removing the need to create synthetic concatenated keys and perform backfills. Multi-attribute keys improve data distribution and uniqueness while enabling left-to-right filtering on sort key attributes. The capability is available at no extra cost across all AWS Regions and can be created via the Console, CLI, SDKs, or API.
