DynamoDb is serverless service, which means that you do not need to provision any EC2 instances to host the database. Its all managed by AWS.

DynamoDB lets you offload the administrative burdens of operating and scaling a distributed database so that you don't have to worry about hardware provisioning, setup and configuration, replication, software patching, or cluster scaling.

The only thing that you have to consider is setting up its read/write capacity. However, if you are not sure on this as well, you can use on-demand capacity mode:

Amazon DynamoDB on-demand is a flexible billing option capable of serving thousands of requests per second without capacity planning. DynamoDB on-demand offers pay-per-request pricing for read and write requests so that you pay only for what you use.
