Delete records in Dynamodb without a TTL
0
A customer has initially created a table that did not have a TTL. A TTL has subsequently been added and they'd now like to purge all of the old data (there are a lot of records) that does not have the TTL attribute. I'm trying to determine the best way to go about removing the data.

They should simply delete, or use BatchWriteItem, to delete the items. There is no gain by adding a TTL attribute to each item that doesn't have it. That update could not be done in batch, and would use the same WCUs as simply deleting the items.
