You can't just use the same data models and normalization strategies of a relational databases in the DynamoDB. Plus there are many differences with other Nosql databases too that you must be aware of. (e.g. scaling behaviour)
I often see teams and devs failing to use DynamoDB effectively only because they don't know/use best practices. It just needs more time.
What I don't like about DynamoDB is the vendor lock-in. Otherwise it's a great product and works really well for many use cases.
- davidjnelson 7y agoI agree DynamoDB is a great product that works well for many use cases. I use it for certain things and it works very well. Relational db's are a better fit for most web apps though.
