title: Copying data from MySQL to Amazon DynamoDB
body: <p>I have a table in MySQL Containing 500 million records. I want to import this table to Amazon DynamoDB.I understand there are two ways to do it:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>JAVA Api: The problem with this approach is that it is slow, also the connection to database gets dropped sometimes.</p></li>
  <li><p>Amazon Data Import Pipeline : Seems promising, But how do I export the data from MySQL to the format recognized by DynamoDB?</p></li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Please let me the best possible approach between the two.</p>
