What do you like best about Amazon DynamoDB?

I like the scalability of Dynamodb. It is quite cheap as compared to other vendors offering similar solutions. Also, automatic multi-region data replication feature is good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon DynamoDB?

I can have views, stored procedures and functions on RDS but for DynamoDB, I have to write a ton of lambda functions. If you pretty much know exactly how you will query your data in the end then DynamoDB is best. Don't use it if your needs may change in future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We have made an internal application where DynamoDB is acting as datastore for our environment usage plan (UAT, SIT and PROD). It is faster and scales well. We are using DAX for accelaration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Amazon DynamoDB?

The best thing is the ease of use and data visualization. It's super easy to record IoT data and also easy for CRUD operations. The documentation is also perfect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon DynamoDB?

Some features like muktiple db streams connected to a same server can be introduced. Or even subdivision of DB. Also support for Flutter would be very helpful for many app developers Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I have been using amazon dynamodb for many purposes related to IoT. I usually record my IoT sensor data or status in dynamo db through rues in AWS IoT. It is very helpful in that scenario. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Amazon DynamoDB?

Easy to use and scale

Good Performance

Great reliability and scalability Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon DynamoDB?

DynomoDB did not support different region backup

The costs can be huge if the resource is not monitored properly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Amazon DynamoDB:

Highly recommended Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

DynamoDB has made it quick and easy for us to prototype and build out our new features. We've spun up a few microservices hosting the data in DynamoDB and the NoSQL database has made our architecture very flexible and future-proof. It's been an easy way for us to denormalize parts of our data and start stripping out parts of our monolith and implementing it in microservices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Amazon DynamoDB?

As compared to other NoSQLs its consistency and fast performance through large data sets including the ability to set up business intelligence applications for data analytics are something that I'm fond of. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon DynamoDB?

I always wished I could have got DynamoDB as an Application in my system rather than accessing it only on AWS. Also, I would like to have more features on Triggers and Joins as there was one requirement in my task which got stuck because of this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Amazon DynamoDB:

Even if you have your' requirement fulfilled by your local databases but you should give it a try. Do POC on it with your system because the features it is providing with fewer complexities in scaling and ease of querying and maintenance that even your freshers can easily hold up is more than you can ask for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Since we have shifted to DynamoDB we have fewer complexities of managing the backend servers, scaling it on a timely basis and even the freshers of our teams are easily able to learn it because of the ease of use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
