How Do You Use Amazon DynamoDB?

Problem scenario
You want to use a NoSQL solution from a public cloud provider. How do you deploy Amazon DynamoDB to try it out?

Solution
1.  Log into AWS.
2.  In the web browser, go to https://console.aws.amazon.com/dynamodb/home
3.  Click "Create table"
4.  Enter the fields as you find appropriate.  It should be self-explanatory.  Click "Create".
5.  You can now create items in the table, create new tables or create a cluster (e.g., the Amazon DynamoDB Accelerator called DAX which includes an in-memory cache service).
