Amazon DynamoDB Primary Use Case
The first use case was indexing large quantities of data streaming in from Kinesis so that we could look up the data and collect it for MapReduce jobs.
Its current use case is as primary storage for a web-based service. It's a global data store for everything to do with content and customers.
In terms of its version, it's hosted. There is no version. You just have DynamoDB.

One of our customers has been using DynamoDB for four years. They are using it to store long strings of data, particularly experiences shared by people in nature domains, such as recreation zones.
These experiences could be related to hiking, swimming, observing nature, or anything else. People can send in short messages, and those messages are stored in DynamoDB.

We use Amazon DynamoDB to store data. We have a hardware device that is continuously reading data. For example, there is a sensor generating weather data every second, and we collect the data after 30 seconds. So, the data is quite huge. We store this data in DynamoDB.
Depending on the client, we show some charts, etc. as well.
