Helps understand the database usage and is suitable for small use cases
Pros and Cons
  • "It is a NoSQL product."
  • "The pricing for larger databases is higher."

What is most valuable?

It is a NoSQL product. We can write what we want, and it will be stored. We need not worry about the structure. If we want to use a database for small use cases, we can use DynamoDB. If the CPU is high in a day, I can check what time it went high, how many people came into the site, and understand the database usage. Whenever the CPU is high, I send all the data to my database and analyze why it is high so that I can minimize the usage accordingly.

If we want to add another field, we can do so easily. It won’t show any errors. There is no need to migrate. Data modeling is easy. Whatever language we use with the product, we must check how to connect and write it. We must use some DynamoDB functions. I use the product with Lambda.

What needs improvement?

The pricing for larger databases is higher.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using the solution for one and a half years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

We did not have any issues with the tool’s stability. We did not face any issues with bugs.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The tool’s scalability is good. I rate the scalability a nine out of ten.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup is straightforward.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We mostly use PostgreSQL.

What other advice do I have?

I have used Amazon RDS. We do not use DynamoDB much. I will recommend the product to others. If we want a small database, Amazon DynamoDB is a good choice. We can use it for larger use cases, too. However, pricing might be high if we opt for the larger database. Overall, I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

What other advice do I have?

Amazon DynamoDB automatically publishes AWS CloudWatch metrics that provide information on health and performance, read-write capacity, system errors, and conditional check fail requests. It is easy for somebody to learn to use Amazon DynamoDB. I would recommend the solution to other users.

Overall, I rate the solution ten out of ten.
