DynamoDB adds a native vector index, removing the copy into a separate vector store
- Sources: primary, discussion
- Summary: AWS added a native vector index to DynamoDB, so vectors are queried in the table that holds the records. Inline filters accept exact-match values only.
- Why it matters: Inline filters accept exact-match values only, with no BETWEEN or BEGINS_WITH, so a range-filtered similarity query still needs a second store.
