Amazon DynamoDB vs CloudBoost: What are the differences?
What is Amazon DynamoDB? Fully managed NoSQL database service. All data items are stored on Solid State Drives (SSDs), and are replicated across 3 Availability Zones for high availability and durability. With DynamoDB, you can offload the administrative burden of operating and scaling a highly available distributed database cluster, while paying a low price for only what you use.
What is CloudBoost? One complete database service that not only does data storage, but also search, real-time and more. CloudBoost.io is a database service for the “next web” - that not only does data-storage, but also search, real-time and a whole lot more which enables developers to build much richer apps with 50% less time saving them a ton of cost and helping them go to market much faster.
Amazon DynamoDB and CloudBoost can be categorized as "NoSQL Database as a Service" tools.
Some of the features offered by Amazon DynamoDB are:
- Automated Storage Scaling – There is no limit to the amount of data you can store in a DynamoDB table, and the service automatically allocates more storage, as you store more data using the DynamoDB write APIs.
- Provisioned Throughput – When creating a table, simply specify how much request capacity you require. DynamoDB allocates dedicated resources to your table to meet your performance requirements, and automatically partitions data over a sufficient number of servers to meet your request capacity. If your throughput requirements change, simply update your table's request capacity using the AWS Management Console or the Amazon DynamoDB APIs. You are still able to achieve your prior throughput levels while scaling is underway.
- Fully Distributed, Shared Nothing Architecture – Amazon DynamoDB scales horizontally and can seamlessly scale a single table over hundreds of servers.
On the other hand, CloudBoost provides the following key features:
- Data-storage
- real-time
- notification
"Predictable performance and cost" is the primary reason why developers consider Amazon DynamoDB over the competitors, whereas "Good features, simple API, save a lot of time" was stated as the key factor in picking CloudBoost.

Amazon DynamoDBFor most of the stuff we use MySQL. We just use Amazon RDS. But for some stuff we use Amazon DynamoDB. We love DynamoDB. It's amazing. We store usage data in there, for example. I think we have close to seven or eight hundred million records in there and it's scaled like you don't even notice it. You never notice any performance degradation whatsoever. It's insane, and the last time I checked we were paying $150 bucks for that.
Amazon DynamoDBzerotoherojs.com ’s userbase, and course details are stored in DynamoDB tables.
The good thing about AWS DynamoDB is: For the amount of traffic that I have, it is free. It is highly-scalable, it is managed by Amazon, and it is pretty fast.
It is, again, one less thing to worry about (when compared to managing your own MongoDB elsewhere).
Amazon DynamoDBWe store customer metadata in DynamoDB. We decided to use Amazon DynamoDB because it was a fully managed, highly available solution. We didn't want to operate our own SQL server and we wanted to ensure that we built CloudRepo on high availability components so that we could pass that benefit back to our customers.
Amazon DynamoDBWhen creating proofs of concept or small personal projects that are hosted primarily in AWS, with non-relational data models, this is the NoSQL managed database I usually pair them with.
Amazon DynamoDB몇몇 로그는 현재 AWS DynamoDB 에 기록되고 있습니다. 개선을 통해 mongodb 로 옮길 계획을 하고 있습니다. 아주 간단한 데이터를 쌓는 용도로는 나쁘지 않습니다. 다만, 쿼리가 아주 제한적입니다. 사용하기 전에 반드시 DynamoDB 의 스펙을 확인할 필요가 있습니다.
