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

It's obviously a Cloud-based solution so automatically provides the pay-as-you-go model along with no hardware overhead (upfront costs).

What do you like best about Amazon DynamoDB?

I like the part that we don't have to manage the database server and all are managed by AWS services. You just have to care about the implementation.

It completes well with MongoDB Atlas Service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon DynamoDB?

Something I didn't like is the Support for multi-table transactions, This would really help in developing the next app with complex queries and operations. Also it holds you back in case you want data joins between tables. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Amazon DynamoDB:

If you are considering going with a NoSQL database architecture in your product, I will suggest that AWS DynamoDB is one of the best Database Management Services available to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am using AWS DynamoDB for inconsistent data sets. The benefits we have realized from this service are flexible Schema, managed servers, scalable and high performance Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Amazon DynamoDB?

Things I like about Amazon DynamoDb are

1. It works very well for high-scale applications

3. Works great for applications that need high write throughput. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon DynamoDB?

1. Not strongly consistent, hence use only if you are ok with eventual consistency.

2. Query patterns need to be known in advance, else you may not get the best performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

1. Amazon dynamodb helps to horizantally shard your data.

2. The way it is helping us is by helping us store events which are very high in number for example millions per second.. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Amazon DynamoDB?

use of functions, data view, scan and query functionality makes things easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon DynamoDB?

1. From UI of dynamoDB I cannot export the output to excel sheets directly. If this option is avilable from UI then data analysis would have become much much easier.

2. While scanning/ querying data from Dynamo DB we use filters to get the required data. We always have to write complete "key name" to filter the data. While the requirement is that it should pick up the key name automatically if a user wries 3-4 words of it.

Example:

key: names_weight

value:ABC_23

the requirement is that If a user writes name in filters then the complete key name ie "names_weight", should be picked up automatically in filters.

This will save a lot of time and effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Amazon DynamoDB:

best DB, sharding is easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

- No sql data base is easy to use and concepts are easily understandable.

- debugging options are good Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
