About Lesson

Amazon DynamoDB is a fully managed NoSQL database service that delivers single-digit millisecond latency at any scale. It provides on-demand, fully managed key-value and document database capabilities. DynamoDB offers automatic scaling, allowing the database to handle varying workloads without manual intervention. It provides strong consistency, high durability, and built-in security features. DynamoDB is commonly used for web and mobile applications, gaming, ad tech, and IoT applications where low latency and scalability are critical.
