this is not possible with dynamodb. if this type of indexing is needed, you may have to use another data source. you'll typically find this type offset indexing with sql databases. of course there are pros/cons to the diff implementations.

Thanks for the reply Brice. I recently started looking into amazon redshift, which basically allows you to copy your nosql database into it which then wraps it around an sql querying interface for you to use sql queries on.
PS: The redshift info above might not be entirely accurate as I'm still yet to look deeper into it.
