When I go to AWS console it asks me to create a DynamoDB table Create DynamoDB table. But I don't have a DynamoDB database yet. How come I create a DynamoDB table without a database?

Thanks for any help!

DynamoDb is not like other databases. You just create tables. Essentially, the DynamoDb access for your account is the database, so you are ready to start adding tables. You can't do joins between tables. Check out How to create a database in DynamoDB which asks and answers a very similar question.
