Amazon DynamoDB
Fast, flexible NoSQL database service for single-digit millisecond performance at any scale
Free 25 GB of storage
and up to 200 million read/write requests per month with the AWS Free Tier
How it works
The diagram shows the core features of Amazon DynamoDB and integrations with other AWS services. The three sections display from left to right.
The first section has an illustration of the DynamoDB service icon within a box titled “Configure Key Features”. Six boxes are displayed in two columns with three rows each with the following features represented per box: In the first column “NoSQL Workbench” top left box, “Encryption at rest” middle left box, and “On-demand capacity mode” in the bottom left box. In the second column, “Global Tables” top right box, “Point-in-time recovery” middle right box and “PartiQL supports” right bottom box. Below the six boxes each containing a feature, and below the heading of “Configure Key Features” is a sentence listing additional DynamoDB features.
The second section has an illustration of a magnifying glass looking at blocks of data. There is a left arrow signifying data coming from DynamoDB and a right arrow signifying data going into AWS services that DynamoDB integrates with. Under the magnifying glass is a headline of “Export, Analyze, Stream Data” with a sentence that explains the types of functions that can be performed when integrating with other AWS services.
The third section is a box containing five smaller boxes within it representing the five services DynamoDB integrates with. The top box contains “Amazon S3”, the second box contains “AWS Glue Elastic Views”, the third box contains “Amazon Kinesis Data Streams”, the fourth box contains “AWS CloudTrail” and the fifth and final box contains “Amazon Cloudwatch”.
