Cloud-Custodian: Deleting just specific backups of specific DynamoDB tables












1















When I want to use an aging policy for DaynamoDB there is not filtering for tables and backups and it deletes all backups of all tables which age is in the defined interval. Is there any way filtering and deleting just some of backups os some DynamoDB Tables? (like find just tagged as "..." tables and delete backups which name just includes "..." in that specific table)



policies:
- name: dynamodb-delete-backup
resource: dynamodb-backup
filters:
- type: value
key: BackupCreationDateTime
op: greater-than
value_type: age
value: 28
actions:
- type: delete

          I have found a workaround solution like below with adding a prefix to backup-name;



          policies:
          - name: dynamodb-create-backup
          resource: dynamodb-table
          filters:
          - not:
          - "tag:Backup": absent
          actions:
          - type: backup
          prefix: custom

          - name: dynamodb-delete-backup
          resource: dynamodb-backup
          filters:
          - type: value
          key: BackupCreationDateTime
          op: greater-than
          value_type: age
          value: 30
          - type: value
          key: BackupName
          op: regex
          value: custom-.*
