Likelihood to Renew

DynamoDB is a solid service that is integrated into the Amazon workflow so we can build applications easily and without too many loose ends when it comes to data storage, security, and non-relational key-value store applications. We would only hope that the documentation is better.

Likelihood to Recommend

Good for times where a non-relational database is needed and speed is an absolute must. If the data is relational like SQL, then DynamoDB does not work as well for the purposes that the service serves.

Non-relational database hosted on the Amazon infrastructure!
