Overview

DynamoDB table data can be quite costly to retain, it is also likely that after a certain point in time they're no longer required and should be cleaned up to prevent further costs.

This query trigger detects unused health checks and then either sends a notification or attempts to perform a predefined corrective action.

Getting Started

By default, this trigger is disabled, however it can be configured by setting the below variables

  • dynamodb_tables_with_stale_data_trigger_enabled should be set to true as the default is false.
  • dynamodb_tables_with_stale_data_trigger_schedule should be set to your desired running schedule
  • dynamodb_tables_with_stale_data_default_action should be set to your desired action (i.e. "notify" for notifications or "delete_table" to delete the table).

Then starting the server:

flowpipe server

or if you've set the variables in a .fpvars file:

flowpipe server --var-file=/path/to/your.fpvars

Query

concat(name, ' [', region, '/', account_id, ']') as title,

sp_connection_name as conn
