public class Item
extends Object
```
An item in DynamoDB. An item is a collection of attributes. Each attribute has a name and a value. An attribute value can be one of the followings:
- String
- Set<String>
- Number (including any subtypes and primitive types)
- Set<Number>
- byte[]
- Set<byte[]>
- ByteBuffer
- Set<ByteBuffer>
- Boolean or boolean
- null
- Map<String,T>, where T can be any type on this list but must not induce any circular reference
- List<T>, where T can be any type on this list but must not induce any circular reference
For an Item to be successfully persisted in DynamoDB, at a minimum the respective attributes for the primary key must be specified.
