Using DynamoDB for Session Storage

[yuppe-kyupeen]

Hello,

I frequently use Remix and am continually impressed by its simple and elegant design. Thank you for creating such a great framework.

Currently, in my project, I am considering using DynamoDB as the session storage for a server-side rendered application. I noticed in the official Remix documentation (https://remix.run/docs/en/1.19.3/utils/sessions#createarctablesessionstorage-architect-amazon-dynamodb) that there is an API called createArcTableSessionStorage(). However, the documentation lacks specific guidance on how to connect to the endpoint, and I haven't found many examples through my searches.

Does anyone know of any projects or resources that could serve as a useful reference for this?

Thank you!

You should be able to create your own createDynamoSessionStorage

Here's the Arc example.

I'm not familiar with arc but it looks like you configure arc tables separately. The session store will use the arc global object to access the table. See getTable() in the source file.

As for dynamodb it looks like you do something similar.
