DynamoDB is a great NoSQL storage solution
- BigTable, Redis, Firebase and Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS)
DynamoDB is a natural fit for anyone using the AWS environment for their code. If we were using Google or not tied to anything then Firebase might have been a better choice as it supports pub / sub among other things. It doesn't really act as a cache like redis does, but it can be used to store denormalized data.

If you need quick noSQL for serverless applications, DynamoDB is a good option to consider
Score 9 out of 10
Vetted Review
Verified User
For our use case, we needed a noSQL that would work with AWS Lambdas of specific parts of the internal web applications. We optimized billing and uses , diversified databases for various parts; so it’s not very expensive.

Scalable and flexible datastore
i think both depends on usuability and app requirement

Best NoSQL Database Tool
Other all SQL Databases are based on the traditional Schema Structure and Amazon DynamoDB is NoSQL so you don't need to generate the SQL Schemas. You can store the data whatever you want, whenever you want. You can store data in structured or non-structured any way you want. If you feel in near future you need to add any one more data point, it is very easy in NoSQL.

Extremely Scalable - Full Marks for scalability

Amazing self-managing DB.
Performance at high scales is better and the cost at high scales is less. If one has a ton of data generated and has to work their way through it, I think Amazon DynamoDB should the go-to database. There are no compromises when it comes to performance at a huge scale. With any number of queries per second, the Amazon DynamoDB will hold up it's own.
- MongoDB, MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server and Oracle Database
MongoDB was basically the first approach we used but because there was concern that some data may miss we were reluctant to use it. Oracle Database and SQL Server was our second approach but it was throttling so in last we tested out Amazon DynamoDB and it met our requirement.

Best in business!
The Amazon Web Services managed Amazon DynamoDB has excellent features which makes it stand out from all the others in market right now. The management ease it offers is far superior than its competitors and on top of that the on-demand pricing model is an advantage which works in favor of Amazon DynamoDB.

Best NoSQL database tool!
Compare to other products its so easier to set up, meeting all of our business requirements and easy usable, highly efficient and scalable.

"very high efficient and scalable RDS database i.e. Amazon DynamoDB"
high scalability #single-digit latency. #so much flexile. #very easy to use. # low maintenance.#GLobal Access

A perfect cloud DB
Amazon DynamoDB seems to be more cost effective and easy to integrate with other aws services.
September 28, 2023
Great products!
- Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS)
Amazon DynamoDB supports larger throughput, with better SLA, also, we are considering unstructured data, so Amazon DynamoDB has become the final decision

Dynamo Db a unique NoSQL from Amazon

DynamoDB from a service providers perspective
The only thing that can be compared to DynamoDB from the selected services can be Aurora. It is just that we use Aurora for High-Performance requirements as it can be 6 times faster than normal RDS DB. Both of them have served as well in the required scenario and we are very happy with most of the AWS services.

Robust & High-performing DB.
Haven't had a chance to use this up to an extent to be compared to DynamoDB.

Scalability and Speed: DynamoDB Delivers Performance Excellence
DynamoDB offers strong consistency, more fine-grained control over read and write capacities, and integrates seamlessly with other AWS services.
DynamoDB is designed for horizontal scalability and high throughput, making it a better choice for applications with rapidly changing workloads.

Best Database in Market!
AWS handles hardware provisioning, data recovery, fault tolerance, patching, and database upgrades for DynamoDB since it is a fully managed database service. Businesses can then concentrate on other aspects of their operations, including product development or customer service, because this frees up time. Cassandra, on the other hand, needs more manual configuration and management, which might take time and extra resources.

Feature packed with amazing service!
The automation is much more subtle and it performs way better for internet-scale applications. No matter the number of connections, the performance doesn't dip even a bit.

DynamoDB: The Scalable, Durable, and Cost-Effective NoSQL Database
cosmos user interface is not that much good in comparision with dynamodb also the response time compares with dynamodb is high.

Making better data decisions with Amazon DynamoDB
DynamoDB's scalability is more automated and effortless, making it easier to handle rapid growth. Other tools require more manual configuration while DynamoDB simplifies database administration. Also, DynamoDB provides strong consistency while other tools like MongoDB and Apache Cassandra provides Tunable consistency levels which can be both advantageous or disadvantageous as per your use case.

DynamoDB is fast, secure and easy to use.
We are always assembling our solutions on AWS and DynamoDB is a better fit for us because of its simplicity.
DynamoDB has its ow sets of triggers that make this an integrated solution on AWS.
Besides, we wanted to use a key-value solution for our simple edge DB, and we didn't needed the added features that MongoDB has as a document-based DB.
The integrated security with our AWS dashboard was also an important factor. And this also affected on the deployment, which can be made with an IaC script.
Have we had any need for advanced queries, then MongoDB would have been a better option.
We believe that both databases can be equally easy to implement and to develop for them.

No SQL, Scalable Database
- Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility)
Amazon DynamoDB is less costly compared to Amazon DocumentDB.

DynamoDB Review
- Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS)
Comparing RDS and Dynamo is not fully Apples to Apples comparison. RDS is a more flexible cloud-native solution that supports a wide range of engines that are relational. It is great for running older DB types like Oracle in the Cloud. Because it supports multiple engines, it is a popular choice for doing hybrid design between Cloud and On-Prem.
DynamoDB is a Key Value database option, which shares some of the performance and security that RDS does with a more specific focus/use case.

Easy Serverless and Scalable
In my experience, Amazon DynamoDB is fast and readily scalable. It also easily integrates easily with Lambda, so its easily integrated.
