A company needs a solution to integrate transaction data from several Amazon DynamoDB tables into...

DynamoDB export to Amazon S3 (via point-in-time exports or table backups) “does not consume read capacity” and has no impact on table performance. Once data is in S3, Amazon Redshift can ingest efficiently with COPY from S3, which is the standard, parallel, high-throughput load path with minimal management. Direct COPY from DynamoDB (B) performs a table scan that can consume provisioned throughput, risking throttling. Building Lambda pipelines (C) adds custom code and scheduling overhead. Athena federated queries (D) are ad hoc analytics, not optimized for bulk, recurring warehouse loads. Therefore, exporting to S3 and loading with Redshift COPY maintains DynamoDB throughput and minimizes operational burden.
