DynamoDB

Amazon DynamoDB is a fully managed NoSQL database service provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS). It is designed for high scalability, reliability, and low-latency access to data, making it suitable for applications that require quick and efficient data retrieval. Unlike traditional relational databases, DynamoDB does not use tables, rows, and columns; instead, it operates on a single-table design concept, which allows for flexible data modeling. This service is particularly popular in serverless architectures, where it seamlessly integrates with other AWS services, enabling developers to build robust applications without the overhead of managing database infrastructure.
