This was one of the clearest breakdowns I’ve read on global vs. local secondary indexes—especially the “scatter and gather” limitation and how partitioned GSIs solve for it. Loved the real-world query examples too. It’s easy to get lost in the abstractions, but this actually helped me visualize the flow. Would love to see a follow-up on how consistency tradeoffs play out between strong vs. eventual in large-scale systems. Great post, Sid.
