What do you like best about Amazon DynamoDB?

One of the main Amazon DynamoDB advantages in my opinion is the pricing model based on data read and writes instead of the volume data. Basically you do not care about the amount of data you are storing into the database.

Besides that, the integration with Amazon DynamoDB in your application is quite simple. Even if there is not a SDK available for your application platform, the communication with the database is via HTTP requests, what turns the integration easy to implement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon DynamoDB?

The documentation is not simple to follow. There are many co-related pages linked each other, sometimes describing the same information. I think it is just a matter of bad organisation. In general, all the information you need about how to use Amazon DynamoDb is there, the difficult part is to find what you are looking for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Amazon DynamoDB:

Amazon DynamoDB is a serverless database solution, that means you do not need to provision, operate and maintain databases, like traditional database solutions. Your work basically is just to define the tables and start using. Moreover, scaling and fault-tolerance are built in features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Amazon DynamoDB is used in my application mainly for two different features:

- As a transactional database

- As a temporary storage for data with a defined TTL (time to live)

In both scenarios above the structure of tables are defined as document database. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
