title: How to connect elasticache and dynamoDb from aws-lambda without using NAT Gateway
body: <p>I need to connect dynamoDb and elasticache from aws-lambda (otherthan using NAT Gateway).</p>
  
  <p>ElastiCache provides essential caching methods along with help in making the Lambda state-ful. The concern is that for Lambda to work nice with DynamoDB it should be set to NoVPC.</p>
  
  <p>If we have to use ElastiCache, Lambda and both have to be in the same VPC.TO use Both ElastiCache and DynamoDB together is quite a challenge specially with Lambda. Given the VPC challenges.Do you have any suggestions to make this easier?</p>
