Connecting to AWS DynamoDb with .NET CORE
Recently i was trying out this course on Udemy on designing microservices architecture based solutions with .NET core and AWS. It was a good course but like most Udemy courses ( ahem ) it had some holes here and there. One of the things i found most troubling is that it did not explain how to connect to AWS' DynamoDb which they was used as the database for the course project, using .NET core. When i checked the questions section of Udemy it was evident to me that i was not the only guy having this problem. Also the information on the all mighty internet was a bit scattered on this problem so i had to read a lot. There WAS instructions on the AWS documentation but it was...let's say i was too stupid to understand it! So therefor , here are the steps i followed to get my solution working , if you are stupid like me i hope you will find this useful :) Step 1 Create an AWS account , if you don't have one already. Im a poor developer so i only have a humble free tier account.
