This command is used to list all the tables in Amazon DynamoDB, which is a NoSQL database service provided by AWS (Amazon Web Services). Here is a breakdown of the command:
aws dynamodb
refers to the AWS CLI (Command Line Interface) command for DynamoDB.list-tables
is the specific action being performed. It instructs AWS CLI to list all available tables in DynamoDB.--region ${us-east-1}
specifies the AWS region where DynamoDB is located. In this case, it is set tous-east-1
, but you can replace it with your desired region code.--output yaml
sets the output format of the result to YAML (Yet Another Markup Language). This means the response will be formatted using YAML syntax, which is a human-readable structured format.
When you run this command, the output will be a YAML-formatted list of all the tables in DynamoDB within the specified region.
