What is Amazon DynamoDB?
DynamoDB is a fully managed NoSQL database for key-value and document data. NoSQL databases use flexible schemas where each item has a key and attributes, but unlike relational databases, different items can have different attributes.
DynamoDB delivers single-digit millisecond response times at any scale by automatically spreading data across servers.
