Overall Satisfaction with Amazon DynamoDB

We used DynamoDB as our backend database. It was very effective and quick to use and we were able to get good results while using it.
  • Provides Scalability
  • Provides Access Control
  • The item size limit of 400KB is something which we faced issue with once since we had a file of around 1-2MB that wasn't getting uploaded to the DB due to this issue
  • Time saving, less time require for maintainence
  • Cost saving, less man power needed to scale the DB
It is very easy to scale. We just needed a single employee to scale our system further.
I have never had any issues with DynamoDB when it comes to performance. All my queries were executed well within time and provided me with the desired results.
Because of it's access control features, quick scalability and high performance.

Yes

DynamoDB is very suited in cases where we are unsure of the size of our database. Particularly in our case we weren't certain about our table sizes but with DynamoDB, we didn't had to worry about that since it was scalable. Also, the access control provided by DB is great and allows only people with certain access to make changes and access specific tables.
