Then you don't use S3?
- sciurus 15y agoThere's an open implementation of S3. http://open.eucalyptus.com/wiki/EucalyptusStorage_v1.4 http://open.eucalyptus.com/wiki/EucalyptusStorage_v1.4
- cleaver 15y agoI don't actually, but I feel there is less lock-in. It wouldn't be hard to move off. Also, the risk of S3 pricing changing greatly is constrained by the wide adoption. If DynamoDB failed to become pervasive, it would be relatively easy for Amazon to increase the price to make an underutilized service profitable. OTOH, if DynamoDB does become as popular as S3 your exposure to risk will be much less.
- spullara 15y agoIt would be pretty easy to implement the DynamoDB API on top of HBase so I wouldn't worry too much about that.
