# New Dynamo Tables after D1 Phaseout
This document is a snapshot of the current table and index schemas for the three new tables introduced as part of the D1 phaseout. It is accurate as of 6/5/2023. It is distilled from the JSON table descriptions in https://github.com/web3-storage/w3infra/blob/main/upload-api/tables/index.js - that document should be consulted in the future to get the most accurate and up-to-date schemas.
I'd love thoughts and comments on this design, especially ideas for queries that we will need to be able to run soon - I'd like to avoid adding new indices too often - ancipating them as well as we can now is likely to save us time and energy in the future.
## Tables
We introduce the following DynamoDB tables in https://github.com/web3-storage/w3infra/pull/194
Some of the listed indices and queries anticipate future work on metrics, blocking and general administrative tools and are not yet in use. Queries that are actively in use by our systems are distiguished below.
### Delegations
#### Fields
| Name | Type | Indices |
| -------- | -------- | -------- |
| cause | string | |
| link | string | primary |
| audience | string | audience |
| issuer | string | |
| expiration | number | |
| insertedAt | string | |
| updatedAt | string | |
#### Indices
| Name | Key | Fields | Comment |
| -------- | -------- | -------- | ------- |
| primary | link | * | delegation CID (`link`) used as partition key, no sort key |
| audience | audience | link | find all `link`s (ie, delegation CIDs) with a particular audience |
#### Queries
| Index | In Use? | Description |
|------- |------- |--------- |
| audience | yes | find all `link`s (ie, delegation CIDs) with a particular audience|
### Subscriptions
#### Fields
| Name | Type | Indices |
| -------- | -------- | -------- |
| subscription | string | primary |
| provider | string | primary, provider |
| cause | string | |
| customer | string | customer |
| insertedAt | string | |
| updatedAt | string | |
#### Indices
| Name | Key | Fields | Comment |
| -------- | -------- | -------- | ------- |
| primary | subscription:provider | * | subscription used as partition key, provider used as sort key. providers should design subscription key value to give them appropriate uniqueness semantics |
| customer | customer:provider | cause, subscription | |
| provider | provider | customer | |
#### Queries
| Index | In Use? | Description |
|------- |---------|--------- |
| customer | yes | find subscriptions for a given customer and provider|
| provider | no | find customers of a given provider |
| primary | no | find the customer of a given subscription |
| customer | no | find subscriptions of a given customer |
### Consumers
#### Fields
| Name | Type | Indices |
| -------- | -------- | -------- |
| subscription | string | primary |
| provider | string | primary, provider |
| cause | string | |
| consumer | string | consumer |
| insertedAt | string | |
| updatedAt | string | |
#### Indices
| Name | Key | Fields | Comment |
| -------- | -------- | -------- | ------- |
| primary | subscription:provider | * | subscription used as partition key, provider used as sort key. providers should design subscription key value to give them appropriate uniqueness semantics |
| consumer | consumer | provider, subscription | |
| provider | provider | consumer | |
#### Queries
| Index | In Use? | Description |
|------- |---------|--------- |
| consumer | yes | find all providers for a given consumer |
| provider | no | find all consumers for a given provider |
| consumer | no | find all subscriptions for a given consumer |
