The number of write throttle events that occur when adding a new global secondary index to a
table. These events indicate that the index creation will take longer to complete, because
incoming write activity is exceeding the provisioned write throughput of the index.
You can adjust the write capacity of the index using the UpdateTable operation, even while the
index is still being built.
Note that the WriteThrotttleEvents metric for the index does not include any throttle events that
occur during index creation.
