-----------------------------------------

Hi [~cjensen] ! Thanks for creating this issue. 

Trying to understand the use case better here. If we want 1 record to map to 2 
WriteRequests, would doing a FlatMap before the sink operator work?

If the intention is to have more efficient reads, could we instead use a GSI?

> DynamoDB Sink Allow Multiple Item Writes

> In some cases, it is desirable to be able to write aggregation data to 
> multiple partition keys.  This supports the case of denormalizing data to 
> facilitate more efficient read operations.
> However, the DynamoDBSink allows for only a single DynamoDB item to be 
> generated for each Flink Element.  This appears to be a limitation of the 
> ElementConverter more than DyanmoDBSink.
