Cloud sandbox environments are not intended for production workloads.

DynamoDB GSI operations are long-running. Therefore in a sandbox, when a customer deletes or modifies an index on a DynamoDB table, we drop the table and recreate it rather than modifying the GSI.

Where supported, we use CDK hot swapping to speed deployment of resources such as Lambda functions and AppSync resolver templates.

When the customer makes an unsupported change to their Cognito User Pool (e.g., deleting a required field), we drop the user pool and recreate it.
