Amazon DynamoDB Pros and Cons

Dynamo db has been one of the best available service of AWS. We have millions of requests going in and out of dynamoDb every day and it scales surprisingly awesome. Another advantage of this offering is the low cost which allows us to work without breaking our heads about cost audits Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface (UI) could be improved in all likelihood. Apart from the User interface, there isn’t anything that i have disliked about dynamo db. It has been an incredible experience so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

it's save lot of cost as it's fully managed on cloud and very cheap as compared to the other no-sqsl databases. It gives the result very fast low latency when we do some query. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The data export features is not much useful when we have large amount of data.

There is limitations that it returns only 1 mb data if we need data more than 1mb it required another call Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

DynamoDB is priced on a pay-as-you-go basis. You are charged for the amount of data you store and the number of requests you make. DynamoDB also offers a free tier that allows you to store up to 25 GB of data and make up to 25 million requests per month. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The lack of support for ACID transactions. DynamoDB does not support ACID transactions. This means that if you make a change to a record in DynamoDB, it is possible that the change will not be reflected in all of the replicas of the record. This can be a problem for applications that require data consistency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Creating jobs are smooth. We just have to fill a JSON form with basic details and that's it. Every column is self explanatory so no additional guidance is required. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There may be some areas which are not explored by me, otherwise I didn't find any thing wrong. Well yes one thing you guys can work on is some improvement on the query side of it. When we fetch an existing dynamodb job under tables-> explore table items-> query and then name of it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use DynamoDB to store customer-sensitive information, so security is our top priority. We use API to store information in DynamoDB, so the process is not too complicated and easy to understand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike nothing significant about Amazon DynamoDB; I only want to mention here that the UI can be more straightforward. Rest all the features and functionalities can be understood easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

AmazonDynamoDB allows you to autoscale by tracking how close your usage is to the upper bounds. This also allows our system to adjust the data traffic amount, which also helps us avoid performance issues when costs get reduced. With Streams, we can easily use the API to make changes to a full-text search data store such as elastic search, push incremental backups to amazon s3, or maintain up-to-date read-cache. It also offers seamless data replication, replicating data in 3 availability zones within a single region. It is secure database service as it follows demonstrated security guidelines while adhering to multiple globally recognized regulatory compliance like PCI DSS, HIPAA and NIST Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

AmazonDynamoDB has some limitations and challenges. I have limited query support, expensive transactions and limited secondary indexing, which may require additional work. Another rule of AmazonDynamoDB is that it does not support complex transactions that involve multiple items or tables. Also, it is expensive since they are charged per read/write operation. Lastly, AmazonDynamoDB is designed to be a key-value store and does not support complex query operations like common SQL databases. It provides a query API for retrieving data based on a single partition key. There should be a feature that can convert to JSON when we export the data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Performance and Scalability: One of Amazon DynamoDB's best qualities is its seamless scaling to accommodate heavy workloads. Even with enormous datasets, it can handle high traffic and give consistently quick performance because it intelligently distributes data across numerous servers.

Fully Managed Service: Because DynamoDB is a fully managed database service, Amazon handles all infrastructure management responsibilities like deploying hardware, patching software, and replicating data. As a result, developers are free to concentrate entirely on creating apps without having to worry about the supporting infrastructure.

DynamoDB is a NoSQL database that offers flexibility in managing structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data. It is a NoSQL database. It uses a key-value store model and is appropriate since it supports wide-column structures and documents.w Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. DynamoDB can be costly because of its high read and write throughput given the fact that Amazon charges based on throughput capacity, storage

2. As all noSQL Databases you have to be very specific about the queries that you fire. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The sheer flexibility of doing the things that require your product/service to grow, the availability of different sort of useful services is what pulls me to aws again and again. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have used DynamoDB for my organization to provide the effective database solution because of the no SQL feature and easy to manage database, it has solved my purpose for store the automation related thigs quite easily and integreated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its charges look high compared to on-premises DB hosting but because of the latency and query time is microseconds, it's good to be and worth to be used for solving production-level tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

best thing is low cost and a lot of features so this is the great. i had been using for storing web application databases and application databases . it work flowless and efficiently . so for me all features are too good Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

i think there is nothing to dislike . however, i had some difficulty in backup and restoring my database at that time i got good support from amazon and they solved it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
