This AWS Solutions Construct implements an AWS IoT topic rule, an AWS Lambda function and Amazon DynamoDB table with the least privileged permissions.

Here is a minimal deployable pattern definition in Typescript:

const { IotToLambdaToDynamoDBProps,  IotToLambdaToDynamoDB } from '@aws-solutions-constructs/aws-iot-lambda-dynamodb';

const props: IotToLambdaToDynamoDBProps = {
    lambdaFunctionProps: {
        code: lambda.Code.fromAsset(`${__dirname}/lambda`),
        runtime: lambda.Runtime.NODEJS_14_X,
        handler: 'index.handler'
    },
    iotTopicRuleProps: {
        topicRulePayload: {
            ruleDisabled: false,
            description: "Processing of DTC messages from the AWS Connected Vehicle Solution.",
            sql: "SELECT * FROM 'connectedcar/dtc/#'",
            actions: []
        }
    }
};

new IotToLambdaToDynamoDB(this, 'test-iot-lambda-dynamodb-stack', props);

Initializer

new IotToLambdaToDynamoDB(scope: Construct, id: string, props: IotToLambdaToDynamoDBProps);

Parameters

scope Construct
id string
props IotToLambdaToDynamoDBProps

Pattern Construct Props

Name	Type	Description
existingLambdaObj?	`lambda.Function`	Existing instance of Lambda Function object, providing both this and `lambdaFunctionProps` will cause an error.
lambdaFunctionProps?	`lambda.FunctionProps`	User provided props to override the default props for the Lambda function.
iotTopicRuleProps	`iot.CfnTopicRuleProps`	User provided props to override the default props
dynamoTableProps?	`dynamodb.TableProps`	Optional user provided props to override the default props for DynamoDB Table
tablePermissions?	`string`	Optional table permissions to grant to the Lambda function. One of the following may be specified: `All`, `Read`, `ReadWrite`, `Write`.

Pattern Properties

Name	Type	Description
iotTopicRule	`iot.CfnTopicRule`	Returns an instance of iot.CfnTopicRule created by the construct
lambdaFunction	`lambda.Function`	Returns an instance of lambda.Function created by the construct
dynamoTable	`dynamodb.Table`	Returns an instance of dynamodb.Table created by the construct

Default settings

Out of the box implementation of the Construct without any override will set the following defaults:

Amazon IoT Rule

Configure least privilege access IAM role for Amazon IoT

AWS Lambda Function

Configure limited privilege access IAM role for Lambda function
Enable reusing connections with Keep-Alive for NodeJs Lambda function
Enable X-Ray Tracing
Set Environment Variables
- AWS_NODEJS_CONNECTION_REUSE_ENABLED (for Node 10.x and higher functions)

Amazon DynamoDB Table

Set the billing mode for DynamoDB Table to On-Demand (Pay per request)
Enable server-side encryption for DynamoDB Table using AWS managed KMS Key
Creates a partition key called 'id' for DynamoDB Table
Retain the Table when deleting the CloudFormation stack
Enable continuous backups and point-in-time recovery
