What do you like best about Amazon DynamoDB?

It's a noSQL database based on key-value data. Fast & reliable due to multi region replication support & quick recovery options. Makes it easier to export, analyse data due to its seemless integration with other AWS services such as S3, elastic, cloudtrail, etc. On top of it, all the data is encrypted at rest so security is fullproof. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon DynamoDB?

Although it can be integrated with other cloud based services as well. Some settings are missing as experienced when I was using GCP cloud storage with dynamoDB for export. (Like folder lifecyling) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Amazon DynamoDB solving and how is that benefiting you?

noSQL databases are coming more & more into use with ever increasing demand of storing consumer data which is not always structured & can differ for wide variety of reasons.

Given this increase in size of data, which is actually exponential, speed & reliability becomes a difficult aspect. DynamoDB maintains this using its in-memory caching & replication features. It also has flexible capacity modes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about AWS Cloud?

The best thing about AWS is that we get everything in one place. Once we get basic knowledge of all the available services we can set up our entire digital business in the AWS cloud itself. Since AWS provide services on a pay as you go model this reduces the upfront costs for any company and we can simply focus on our business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Cloud?

Even though most of the services are affordable, some services are expensive when we compare their worth to their usage. If we leave the services active without knowledge we might end up paying a hefty amount.Also, I feel if we have an option to shut down/stop all the services or an option to select the active services that can be stopped that will be the best thing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering AWS Cloud:

If you have security issues then it's better to use on-premise servers else go for AWS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AWS Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?

AWS is bringing every digital need of a techie/business into their platform as a service and we don't need to go out and look for anything outside. I am planning to implement my digital business in AWS servers since it is cost-effective and easy to use. I have learned a lot of infrastructure-related concepts like networking, DNS, security groups etc while using AWS for my company and my R&D. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Amazon DynamoDB?

A big selling factor for me is the simplicity with which a virtual machine can be set up and utilized for software distribution. Dashboard users can keep track of more than just prices and availability by setting up text message notifications for things like server overload and other circumstances. AWS DynamoDB can work without any server hardware because of this functionality. This removes the need to purchase a server in order to utilize Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud or Amazon Relational Database Service. If you want to view a certain portion of a website, The service will manage upgrades and backups automatically in accordance with its design. My experience with AWS has been nothing but great. We've been able to deliver solid business services and keep our web apps up and running with minimum downtime thanks to AWS. Using this strategy, you can keep your personal data safer and more secret than you could on your own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon DynamoDB?

A new user who has just begun using AWS services would benefit more from the documentation if it was provided in a more user-friendly way. For others, the cost may be a barrier, particularly if they do not prepare ahead of time to maximize the advantages. Otherwise, you may find yourself paying for the whole application even if you only use 10% of its capabilities. You have some discretion in the parameters you supply, but it's definitely reasonable to conclude that using it restricts your freedom more than other options. Because it is cloud-based, data is also kept with the cloud provider; nevertheless, that service also takes efforts to ensure the security of the information. Furthermore, hybrid cloud solutions are a potential choice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Amazon DynamoDB solving and how is that benefiting you?

By assisting with the deployment and maintenance of web applications and microservices, it ensures that the whole offering continues to work without interruption. An enormous amount of information is also archived for later use. One of the best features of Amazon Web Services (AWS) is how seldom it goes down. By using AWS's lightning-fast response times, I was able to boost my product's efficiency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about AWS Cloud?

AWS is one of the best Cloud providers out there in the market. It is helping many small businesses out there to achieve the development of highly scalable products via the many services offered at an affordable price. I like their documentation very much as it's the most detailed documentation I have ever seen and it's pretty self-explainatory. Apart from this their pricing is very competitive as compared to other cloud players in the market. They also provide free Credits which can be consumed on some of their cloud resources for new learners to cloud. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Cloud?

Plan your development before using their services otherwise that affordable price will overshoot your monthly budgets within no time, one of the reason can be improper handling of lambda function failures resulting in repetitive invocation of the same.

Charging extra money for technical support is also something not liked by many users and companies starting at an initial level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AWS Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?

AWS is helping us solve the infrastructure-related problems in the software development life cycle so that we can focus on our core business needs and not on managing the infrastructure.

AWS is also helping people to gain more knowledge on cloud technology. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Amazon DynamoDB?

Amazon DynamoDB is the best choice when you want to store data as key-value pairs in a database with full reliability and scalability. Since this DB is non-relational so write operation becomes very cost-efficient as no foreign keys will be there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon DynamoDB?

Data is in key-value pairs which makes it easy to extract the data but at the same time Joins are not allowed as well as foreign keys are not in Amazon DynamoDB which makes it less flexible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Amazon DynamoDB solving and how is that benefiting you?

In Amazon DynamoDB we are storing eCommerce-based data which is then used for reporting purposes. We integrated AmazonDynamo with other tools using MuleSoft. Connectors are available in MuleSoft to connect with Amazon DynamoDB easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
