Select
simpledb_select | R Documentation |
The Select operation returns a set of attributes for ItemNames that match the select expression¶
Description¶
The select
operation returns a set of attributes for ItemNames
that
match the select expression. select
is similar to the standard SQL
SELECT statement.
The total size of the response cannot exceed 1 MB in total size. Amazon
SimpleDB automatically adjusts the number of items returned per page to
enforce this limit. For example, if the client asks to retrieve 2500
items, but each individual item is 10 kB in size, the system returns 100
items and an appropriate NextToken
so the client can access the next
page of results.
For information on how to construct select expressions, see Using Select to Create Amazon SimpleDB Queries in the Developer Guide.
