- mabbo 8y agoI just finished watching that video 10 minutes ago and my mind is blown. I've been using DynamoDB wrong for most of 7 years.
- lliamander 8y agoThat's an awesome diagram, and I look forward to the video. I think this nicely illustrates why most projects shouldn't use a high-scalability NoSQL database: they benefit much more from flexible data models and efficient query. All that being said, there are other factors when choosing a database aside from those three. For some of our microservices, my team doesn't need scalability or flexible queries, just efficiency. However, we've found that it is cheaper/easier for use to use DynamoDB than RDS.
