# AWS::DynamoDB::GlobalTable WarmThroughput
<a name="aws-properties-dynamodb-globaltable-warmthroughput"></a>

Provides visibility into the number of read and write operations your table or secondary index can instantaneously support. The settings can be modified using the `UpdateTable` operation to meet the throughput requirements of an upcoming peak event.

## Syntax
<a name="aws-properties-dynamodb-globaltable-warmthroughput-syntax"></a>

To declare this entity in your CloudFormation template, use the following syntax:

### JSON
<a name="aws-properties-dynamodb-globaltable-warmthroughput-syntax.json"></a>

```
{
  "[ReadUnitsPerSecond](#cfn-dynamodb-globaltable-warmthroughput-readunitspersecond)" : Integer,
  "[WriteUnitsPerSecond](#cfn-dynamodb-globaltable-warmthroughput-writeunitspersecond)" : Integer
}
```

### YAML
<a name="aws-properties-dynamodb-globaltable-warmthroughput-syntax.yaml"></a>

```
  [ReadUnitsPerSecond](#cfn-dynamodb-globaltable-warmthroughput-readunitspersecond): Integer
  [WriteUnitsPerSecond](#cfn-dynamodb-globaltable-warmthroughput-writeunitspersecond): Integer
```

## Properties
<a name="aws-properties-dynamodb-globaltable-warmthroughput-properties"></a>

`ReadUnitsPerSecond`  <a name="cfn-dynamodb-globaltable-warmthroughput-readunitspersecond"></a>
