DynamoDB scales much more than that. In one of their dynamodb papers they claimed that the amazon us retail website alone made like 89 millions rps during prime day, a few years ago.

- junon 3mo agoIt's also one of the most aggravating database systems I've worked with.
- znpy 3mo agoIt still scales though
- dynotable 2mo ago89M rps was the peak across all Amazon systems during 2021 Prime Day. Alexa, Amazon.com and the fulfilment centres together, not one site. But its still very impressieve. But the more importarnt number is the per partition limit, 3000 RCU and 1000 WCU. Horizontal scale is the easy part, a table only gets near it if the partition key actually spreads.
