Amazon SimpleDB vs. Percona Server for MongoDB

Well suited for: Games, Chat rooms, real time software like corporate events, marathons and so. Anytime and anywhere you could use a NoSQL DB you should think of SimpleDB.

As an arduous AWS user, Amazon SimpleDB easily integrates with EC2 and other AWS module; and if you are not an AWS user, you also have a fantastic tool that will solve the problem for which you are focused.

It offers good support for the implementation of solutions in the public and on-premises cloud and integration with other services such as Hashicorp Vault for data encryption. One of the main advantages is the ease of configuration, in addition to offering transaction support for the different operations and scalability of the servers.

• High performance
• Integration with other tools and services
• Big data projects oriented
• High availability and scalability

Incentivized

• Non AWS environments
• Strict storage limit (but well we have DynamoDB for storage issues)

• The learning curve makes it a bit tricky to use at first.
• Documentation is an aspect to improve, especially for people who are just starting out.
• At the interface level, the user experience could be improved.

One aspect to improve is the user experience since sometimes the steps to take are not clear and the user may need to review some of the actions before continuing with the next ones. Another aspect to improve is the documentation and support for developers who want to know the tool.

It offers good support for the implementation of solutions in the public and on-premises cloud and integration with other services such as Hashicorp Vault for data encryption. Also, it offers support for different compatible programming languages such as C, C ++, Java, as well as offering good support for the persistence of schema-free data and the possibility of saving data in memory.

It integrates beautifully with AWS. In some projects we use SimpleDB while we use DynamoDB for others, according to the characteristics of the project. If the infrastructure is AWS, we always think of one of them.

At the performance level, it is similar to other solutions such as MongoDB and Percona Server for MySQL. and at the customization level, it offers better support for the development of specific solutions that seek good performance in transactions.

Incentivized

• Reduced database administration time
• Reduced data model analysis time
• Lower cost of resources in projects in general

Incentivized

• It offers a good alternative solution compared with other open source databases.
• We have many resources at the documentation level and other tools that help the integration with different programming languages.
