title: dynamodb - splitting development and production by region
body: <p>I'm using dynamodb, and I want to separate my development environment from production. I've seen two ways of doing this: one by prefixing the tables, e.g MyTable_Dev vs. MyTable_Prod, and the other by opening separate account and using consolidated billing. But I wanted to hear your opinion about a third way: separating environments by region, say production in western Europe vs. development in central Europe. Code-wise, it would be very easy for me to do. But do you think it is a good solution? does it scale? </p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
