Amazon DAX Client for JavaScript
DAX is a DynamoDB-compatible caching service that enables you to benefit from fast in-memory performance for demanding applications.
This client library provides access from NodeJS to DAX.
Installing
The Amazon DAX client only runs from NodeJS, and can be installed using npm:
npm install amazon-dax-client
Usage and Getting Started
You can follow the Getting Started tutorial at:
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/DAX.client.sample-app.html
To quickly use DAX, replace AWS.DynamoDB
with AmazonDaxClient
:
const AmazonDaxClient = require('amazon-dax-client');
// Replace this ...
const ddb = new AWS.DynamoDB({region: region});
/// with this ...
const endpoint = "your-cluster-discovery-endpoint";
const dax = new AmazonDaxClient({endpoints: [endpoint], region: region});
// If using AWS.DynamoDB.DocumentClient ...
const doc = new AWS.DynamoDB.DocumentClient({service: dax});
The DAX Cluster Discovery Endpoint can be found the AWS console or by using aws dax describe-clusters
from the command line.
Creating a connection to your DAX cluster requires using the Cluster Discovery Endpoint URL returned in the DescribeClusters response as the endpoint.
For example:
// Format: const endpoint = <ClusterDiscoveryEndpoint.URL>;
const endpoint = 'dax://my-cluster.abc123.dax-clusters.us-east-1.amazonaws.com';
