Offers exceptional performance to users

Pros

"The most valuable feature of the solution is its performance."

Cons

"Previously, only 64 KB could be used, and later, I think, it was about 400 KB. If the tool could have an additional 10 MB to offer, then the tool could be easier to use."

High performance and scalability support real-time analytics with room for better normalization

Pros

"The fact that Amazon DynamoDB is highly scalable is one of its best features."

Cons

"Amazon DynamoDB can be quite expensive due to regional differences, so I have to be careful with the pricing."

Streamlined data management with robust automation and easy replication

Pros

"We use the single table design pattern extensively since it helps us describe very complex patterns and data types on the table. "

Cons

"Defining simple expressions and queries can be slightly complicated due to DynamoDB's unique JSON syntax. This can be confusing, especially for beginners."

Very fast transactions and the cost is low

Pros

"The transactions are very fast, and the cost is low with Amazon DynamoDB."

Cons

"The process of making a query could be optimized."

Manages our contact center dynamically and allows us to store multiple data attributes in tables

Pros

"The ability to store multiple data attributes is crucial. For example, in a contact flow, if a customer calls, we can integrate DynamoDB dynamically. We need only the customer's mobile number as the primary key, which is stored in the DynamoDB table. "

Cons

"In future releases, I would like a feature that lets us store information about public holidays or weekends. When customers call during those closed periods, we could use DynamoDB to trigger an automatic message. So this would eliminate the need for agents to manually inform customers."

A cloud-based NoSQL database service that supports structured and unstructured data

Pros

"It offers quick performance and rapid data retrieval, often providing limited data initially but scaling up to fulfill larger demands seamlessly. "

Cons

"Having an import option, whether through browsing or local file uploads, would significantly improve the efficiency of data migration, enabling users to swiftly transfer large volumes of data into DynamoDB."

Efficient handling of large data volumes with seamless integration for analytics and good paid support

Pros

"Being serverless, it alleviates concerns about scalability and failover. "

Cons

"If you purchase the support plan, their support team is good. If not, it takes two to three days to respond, sometimes even more."
