We performed a comparison between Amazon DynamoDB and Amazon Neptune based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google and others in Managed NoSQL Databases."Amazon DynamoDB is a fully managed service by AWS, and it is designed to provide fast and predictable performance."
"The possibility of managing documents is the most valuable aspect of the solution. I like the fact that I don't have to define the fields."
"The best feature is NoSQL."
"DynamoDB is a key-value database, and it's valuable if you have simple scan queries and don't need to do point searches."
"One of the most valuable features of Amazon DynamoDB is it can handle unstructured or semi-structured data."
"It has helped us build our product from zero point to the end."
"Speed is the most valuable feature. The speed to store and retrieve data from it."
"Storing is a valuable feature. We can store as an entire object rather than the traditional structure of the data."
"Relational databases are never good at identifying patterns in graphs or other similar relationships, whereas Amazon Neptune is."
"The solution's efficiency and performance should be faster than other databases."
"Amazon DynamoDB could improve by being more robust, having a better user interface and data management. Additionally, there is some limited functionality compared to other solutions, such as MongoDB."
"The solution has size limitations. It also needs to be more user-friendly."
"I'd like to see better integration with Cognito. It has the integration, but I'd like to see a little more ease of setup. If you have multiple customers and you want the database to enforce who can see what, you can treat DynamoDB so that each row has permissions. You can set this up, but it's a little more of a science project to make Cognito and DynamoDB work well to do protection of individual rows. So I'd like that to be more wizard or easy to set up."
"The documentation is not good enough."
"They could provide more information or training programs to deliver knowledge to the engineers about the components of relational databases similar to popular vendors."
"I initially faced issues with the solution's stability, performance, and security."
"If you have no prior experience with this type of non-relational database, the syntaxes, implementation, or understanding may be difficult."
"Amazon Neptune could improve by spreading more awareness for others to have an understanding of the solution because the technology is fairly new. The developer community and larger community do not understand it yet."
