Ramp Contracts DynamoDB Query Runbooks
The DynamoDB table holds the truth, but truth alone is useless without speed. Contracts at Ramp need answers now — not after a slow batch job, not after manual digging. That’s where DynamoDB query runbooks come in. They turn a pile of data into a system any engineer can run in seconds.
Ramp Contracts DynamoDB Query Runbooks are structured guides for retrieving, filtering, and analyzing contract data inside AWS DynamoDB. They define the queries, indexes, and access patterns in one place. No guessing. No wading through outdated scripts. Each runbook captures:
- Table names and key schema
- Secondary indexes used for performance
- Required query parameters
- Common sort orders and filters
- Example results payloads
A well-designed runbook makes contract queries repeatable and predictable. For Ramp, this means every contract retrieval — whether by client ID, execution date, or status — hits the right index and avoids full scans.
To build these runbooks, start with the contract table schema in DynamoDB. Identify the primary key. Map every common business query to either the primary key or a global secondary index (GSI). Define consistent key condition expressions. Document them in plain text, backed by tested example commands using the AWS CLI or your preferred SDK.
When queries need compound filters, store them in the runbook with exact syntax and expected outputs. Keep the runbook in version control. Require pull requests for edits. This locks in query performance and reduces drift between dev, staging, and prod environments.
Running the contract queries becomes a matter of following the runbook step by step. No tribal knowledge. No hidden endpoints. Even complex scans across contract statuses or dates become routine operations in seconds.
The result: Ramp's contracts stay accessible, auditable, and fast to query at scale. The team spends less time troubleshooting and more time shipping features. DynamoDB never becomes a bottleneck, because the queries are baked into the operational muscle of the company.
