At least in my experience, I had to go through docs to understand how to use java sdk to query and save data so it wasn't just plug-n-play experience. Since it's a key - value storage which supports multiple values, you need to know them and aware how to use these through sdk. Although I solved it fast reading the docs and trying few examples, it was something that I had to go thorough. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Amazon DynamoDB is NoSQL meaning it does not have relations in DB, all we can pick whole record as array or JSON in key-value pair format. This is easy to save records in database, plus, we can directly save it on Cloud. This is serverless architecture which can easily scale up and down tables. The partition key is important when creating and managing this database because it will effectively keep cost of this DB low. It comes in Amazon ecosystem so clients already having this server architecture can easily use this DB without extra cost. Also it uses Elastic MapReduce for analysis and collection data types such as set and list making it easy for read and writes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
In DynamoDB ,it is important to choose partition key when data grows because growing data should be evenly partitioned. However, the total provisioned throughput for a table does not increase here. The table throughput will decrease data growth. To serve more queries, it needs more table throughput that will eventually increase cost of DynamoDB continuously.
