DynamoDB
DynamoDB is a fully managed NoSQL database service provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS), designed for high performance and scalability. It stores data in key-value and document formats, offering single-digit millisecond latency at any scale through automatic partitioning and replication. It is commonly used for applications requiring fast, predictable performance, such as gaming, IoT, and web applications.
Developers should use DynamoDB when building applications that need low-latency data access, high throughput, and seamless scalability without managing infrastructure. It is ideal for use cases like real-time bidding, session stores, and e-commerce catalogs where consistent performance under variable loads is critical. Its serverless nature and integration with AWS services make it a strong choice for cloud-native applications.
