Calcolo del Time to Live (TTL) in DynamoDB

Un modo comune per implementare il TTL consiste nell’impostare una scadenza per gli elementi in base a quando sono stati creati o aggiornati l’ultima volta. Questa operazione è fattibile aggiungendo la scadenza ai timestamp createdAt e updatedAt. Ad esempio, il TTL per gli elementi appena creati può essere impostato su createdAt + 90 giorni. Quando l’elemento viene aggiornato, il TTL può essere ricalcolato a updatedAt + 90 giorni.

La scadenza calcolata deve essere in formato epoch, in secondi. Per essere considerato valido per la scadenza e l’eliminazione, il TTL non può essere passato da più di cinque anni. Se si utilizza un altro formato, i processi TTL ignorano l'item. Se si imposta la data di scadenza su un periodo futuro in cui si desidera che l’elemento scada, l’elemento scadrà dopo tale periodo. Ad esempio, si supponga di aver impostato la data di scadenza su 1724241326 (ovvero lunedì 21 agosto 2024 11:55:26 (GMT)). L’elemento scade dopo il periodo specificato.

Creazione di un oggetto e impostazione del Time to Live

L’esempio seguente mostra come calcolare la scadenza durante la creazione di un nuovo elemento, utilizzando expireAt come nome dell’attributo TTL. Un’istruzione di assegnazione ottiene il momento corrente come variabile. Nell’esempio, la scadenza viene calcolata come a 90 giorni dal momento corrente. La scadenza viene quindi convertita in formato epoch e salvata come tipo di dati intero nell’attributo TTL.

Gli esempi di codice seguenti mostrano come creare un elemento con un valore TTL.

Aggiornamento di un elemento e del Time to Live

Questo esempio è una continuazione di quello della sezione precedente. La scadenza può essere ricalcolata se l’elemento viene aggiornato. L’esempio seguente ricalcola il timestamp expireAt in modo che corrisponda a 90 giorni dal momento corrente.

Gli esempi del TTL discussi in questa introduzione dimostrano un metodo per garantire che in una tabella vengano conservati solo gli elementi aggiornati di recente. Gli elementi aggiornati hanno una durata prolungata, mentre gli elementi non aggiornati dopo la creazione scadono e vengono eliminati gratuitamente, liberando spazio di archiviazione e mantenendo le tabelle pulite.
