Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
The DynamoDB table specified in the function does not exist.
A ResourceNotFoundException indicates that the specified DynamoDB table does not exist or has been deleted. Option A is incorrect because a Lambda timeout would result in a timeout error, not a ResourceNotFoundException. Option C is incorrect because insufficient permissions to access DynamoDB would produce an AccessDeniedException. Option D is incorrect because throttling by DynamoDB would cause a ProvisionedThroughputExceededException.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
The Lambda function timed out while waiting for a response.
Why it's wrong here
Timeout would cause a different error, not ResourceNotFoundException.
- ✓
The DynamoDB table specified in the function does not exist.
Why this is correct
ResourceNotFoundException means the resource is not found.
- ✗
The Lambda function does not have permission to access DynamoDB.
Why it's wrong here
Insufficient permissions cause AccessDeniedException, not ResourceNotFoundException.
- ✗
The DynamoDB table is throttling requests.
Why it's wrong here
Throttling causes ProvisionedThroughputExceededException.
