Dynamo seems nice for some very specific use cases, but there are others where it falls short.
There's limits on how big your data can be, which is a little annoying if you want to use it to store a couple larger things alongside all your small data.
The C# API is absolutely painful IMO, and makes it easy for new developers to use it in a way that you would have been better off grabbing a different technology.
I suppose one could argue S3 would be the better choice for large payloads, OTOH I'm a fan of minimizing potential points of failure so if we already are using DynamoDB I'd rather not toss in an additional S3 integration that could break or need maintenance later.
