DESCRIPTION = """Load data into one or more DynamoDB tables.

For each table, data is read from two files:
  - {table_name}.metadata for the table's name, schema and provisioned
    throughput (only required if creating the table).
  - {table_name}.data for the table's actual contents.

Both files are searched for in the current directory. To read them from
somewhere else, use the --in-dir parameter.

This program does not wipe the tables prior to loading data. However, any
items present in the data files will overwrite the table's contents.
