Amazon DynamoDB Reviews & Product Details - Page 53

It's super easy to get DynamoDB securely integrated into a new or existing application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some of the constraints are too strict in 2018. The size limits for a "row" of data is the worst. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Autoscaling, rapid lookups for known partition and sort keys, global table replication, backup and restore, encryption at rest. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I should be able to convert an existing table to a global table.

Backup and Restore should work with Global Tables.

Keep Gov Cloud DynamoDB up to date with commercial regions.

Scaling up/down can be quicker.

400KB per row limit is too low Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Dynamo is the leader in document based storage. It prides itself on dependability and scalability. One of the coolest features is the ability to set a table to auto-scale itself. While you need to be aware of the nuances included in this feature, it is likely that you can automatically gain significant savings on your tables with 1-2 clicks.

Many can't complain about DynamoDB. If you are not aware of the speed and advantages that it provides, it will seem very costly to use. This is not a viable solution for hobbyists looking for a free database. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Performance and availability. This product is great if your data needs to highly available and you know a little bit about your data when accessing it ( great when searching for single items by primary index). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not so great when trying to access potentially lengthy lists of records by multiple indexes. Auto scaling for indexes which are particually spikey can be costly. Costs are created from either additional dev time to manage throttling or more expensive (potentially wasteful) R/W throughput minimums. All of these negative aspects go away if your company has lots of money to spend on a DB.. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Dynamo for quick and efficient data collection has been very useful. We use it for an app developer somewhat recently.

We like how consisted and reliable the system is. It's been really easy to use and navioas well Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish there was an option that allowed us to download data automatically at the same time everyday instead of us having to go in and download it manually.

It would save us a lot of time and worry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to create and maintain via the aws console is super convenient Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It lacks some of the configuration and tooling that larger DBs have (postgres, oracle) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Dynamodb is very simple to spin up and get going, and requires little setup, especially if your application doesn't need the columner storage of redshift, nor the relational data store of rds. I generally look to use dynamodb db first for applications that don't have complex requirements, and need fast response times. The streams are also very helpful as an event driven entrypoint. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've had issues with burst blowing through the provisioned throughput. While we handle this in the application, I still think the autoscaling could kick in faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The thing I like most about DynamoDB is the abilityfor a client developer to immediately be able to create scalable backend datastores, integrate with them, and not require a server engineer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Periodically I run into issues with migration. This might be an data archietture issue but sometimes it feels like I"m fighting with Dynamo. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We've been able to run massive DB that was previously in mysql on dynamodb with minimal provisioning and it's just plain easier to deal with. Much much faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

nothing, it does exactly what you'd expect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Great NoSQL db. Its consistent and Partition tolerant. Also can be configure for high availablility.

Scales well. integrates smoothly with kinesis and S3, and other useful services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Expensive to use when payload is not huge. Should make it attractive for medium data load as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
