How to enable logging of DynamoDB queries in the Spring Boot application?

Question

I developed a Spring Boot (2.3.3) application which stores its data in DynamoDB.

I used the following packages to CRUD my data:

• aws-java-sdk-dynamodb (1.11.891)
• spring-data-dynamodb (5.1.0)

All works well, but I want to enable logging of requests my app makes to DynamoDB to be able to optimize it (use proper index, etc.).

I tried to configure log4j using this AWS SDK docs. But I still don't see any AWS SDK related lines in my app console output.

Please, help!

Answer 1

For logging AWS dynamodb i use log4j and add following property in log4j.xml

<Logger name="org.apache.http.wire" level="trace"/>

This will print all calls which make to dynamodb server.
