I did try to search this in AWS documentation and answers, would like to confirm my interpretation of this.
We know Amazon S3 offers Read after Write consistency for new objects, does Amazon DynamoDB Eventually Consistent Reads behave in the same way?
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/HowItWorks.ReadConsistency.html
As per the documentation it seems like that specific condition is not called out and all Eventually Consistent Reads seem to behave the same way whether new Items or updates to existing Items.
"when it's needed" - except when its needed on a GSI :-) As GSI's do not support consistent reads
