Research direction

The issue names no file, test, or entry point. Start by locating how the tool handles throughput exceptions and provisions capacity, then clarify whether exponential backoff, a configurable capacity limit, or both are required; done means the agreed behavior is implemented and covered by tests.

Description

Hi guys,

I've gotten some throughput exceeded exceptions which are fine because I was provisioning my tables with a very low number, but is there some kind of exponential backoff feature in the tool ? ( I didn't see any, maybe I looked wrong)

Also, is there a way you guys limit the capacity used by the tool ?

Any suggestion welcome !

Thank you
