+## Getting Started
+
+### Required Prerequisites
+
+* Python 3.11+
+* aws-cryptographic-material-providers 1.10.0+
+
+### Installation
+
+> **Note:**
+> If you have not already installed [cryptography](https://cryptography.io/en/latest/), you might need to install additional prerequisites as
+> detailed in the [cryptography installation guide](https://cryptography.io/en/latest/installation/) for your operating system.
+
+```bash
+$ pip install aws-dbesdk-dynamodb
+```
+
+### Concepts
+
+The AWS Database Encryption SDK for DynamoDB (DBESDK-DynamoDB) is available in multiple languages.
+The concepts in the Python implementation of the DBESDK-DynamoDB are the same as in other languages.
+For more information on concepts in the DBESDK-DynamoDB, see the [README](https://github.com/aws/aws-database-encryption-sdk-dynamodb/blob/main/README.md) for all languages.
+
+DBESDK-DynamoDB uses cryptographic material providers from the AWS Cryptographic Material Providers Library (MPL).
+For more information on the MPL, see its [README](https://github.com/aws/aws-database-encryption-sdk-dynamodb/blob/main/README.md) or [readthedocs](https://aws-cryptographic-material-providers-library.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) page.
