"Serverless Database Not need to worried about connection string as like others data bases"
5/5
What do you like best about Amazon DynamoDB?

The mosr helpful about the dynamoDB is we don't need to worried about the connection string as it is the serverless and the beauty is we have GSI and LSI. In DynamoDB it has a feature like stream that is very useful in my couple of project where I can easily monitor operation in DynamoDB. We can also manage the load without any over head by just adding read write throughput. There is another feature that I like most is the Provision and On Demand feature that helps me to decide my read write operation on DB. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon DynamoDB?

When we export large amount of data from DynamoDB, it requires S3 bucket and the data exported format is not in the JSON. There should be a feature that can convert to JSON when we export the data, it should be like in the ION format. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Amazon dyanamo db is an efficient and popular scalable, no SQL database services"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Amazon DynamoDB?

Dyanamo db is a managed no SQL database services, no need to worry about the scalability and efficiency, which will take care by aws. As it is more scalable,it will handle very high amount of data and traffic. Again it is designed for low latency and high throughput performance as a result it is capable to handle million of request at a single point of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon DynamoDB?

The down side of dyanamo db is that it's bit expensive as compared to other db services. It wouldn't support complex query and join between the table. Again it's data size limit is 400kb only. It wouldn't be able to handle more data size limit db transaction Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Go for Serverless-Amazon DynamoDB"
5/5
What do you like best about Amazon DynamoDB?

DynamoDB is a serverless, fully managed and NOSQL database.Scalability is done once the application start accumulating the data.In a single region it replicates data in 3 availability zones for data recovery.It also integrates with IAm for fine grained access control to the database.DynamoDB Accelerator can be used to decrease the latency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon DynamoDB?

The main disadvantage I experienced is it is very difficult to predict the cost. The querying options are limited and it doesn't allow querying if there are no indexes.The size limit for an item is 400KB and the users are not allowed to increase this size.The on-premisr deployment is not available for DynamoDB, it is only available on AWS cloud.

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.

"Amazon DynamoDB ,a reliable and performant database for their applications."
4/5
What do you like best about Amazon DynamoDB?

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.

What do you dislike about Amazon DynamoDB?

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.

"Smooth and easy"
5/5
What do you like best about Amazon DynamoDB?

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.

What do you dislike about Amazon DynamoDB?

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.

"AmazonDynamoDB: A highly scalable, reliable, serverless and efficient NoSql database"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Amazon DynamoDB?

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.

What do you dislike about Amazon DynamoDB?

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.

"Powerful and Scalable: A Review of Amazon DynamoDB"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Amazon DynamoDB?

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.

What do you dislike about Amazon DynamoDB?

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.
