Amazon DocumentDB Overview

What is Amazon DocumentDB?

Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility) is a database service that is purpose-built for JSON data management at scale, fully managed and integrated with AWS, and enterprise-ready with high durability. Amazon DocumentDB is designed from the ground-up to give you the scalability and durability you need when operating mission-critical MongoDB workloads. In Amazon DocumentDB, storage scales automatically up to 64TiB without any impact to your application. It supports millions of requests per second with up to 15 low latency read replicas in minutes, without any application downtime, regardless of the size of your data. Amazon DocumentDB now supports Global Clusters. Global Clusters is a new feature that provides disaster recovery from region-wide outages and enables low-latency global reads by allowing reads from the nearest Amazon DocumentDB cluster. Amazon DocumentDB is designed for 99.99% availability and replicates six copies of your data across three AWS Availability Zones (AZs). You can use AWS Database Migration Service (DMS) for free (for six months) to easily migrate your self-managed MongoDB databases to Amazon DocumentDB with virtually no downtime.

What do you like best about Amazon DocumentDB?

Like every other AWS managed databases document dB is also wonderful. It is fully managed NOSQL Mongo dB .Like RDS here also I don't need to worry about patches , security,hardware provisioning etc Every thing is managed by AWS. I just need to integrate with my app simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon DocumentDB?

Only one thing I came across while using document dB is it is not serverless. I need to manage the instance used by document dB. It is not like dynamodb. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Amazon DocumentDB solving and how is that benefiting you?

Document dB is fully managed NoSQL database which helped me by balancing load from users by creating copies across 3 availability zones.Automatic backup helped me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about AWS Databases?

The best part about going with any AWS Database like documentDb, dynamodb, aurora etc is the easy integration with other AWS services. While it also offering IAC compatibility which other DBAAS doesn't offer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Databases?

Cost of going with AWS Database is I have found to be higher in when compared to other DBAAS providers. Adding to it, if we want to migrate to other database, it becomes a operational and technical headache. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AWS Databases solving and how is that benefiting you?

My organisation is pro AWS, and when we wanted to reduce the cost of our SAAS offering by pre reserving resources from AWS which included Databses as well. It helped us get a discount from AWS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about AWS Cloud?

I've been a cloud engineer for a year and continue working on AWS as my cloud service provider. One of the best things that I like about AWS is:

1: its easy-to-use UI and one of the best features is its services; AWS provides almost every product and software engineering service.

2:one thing I would like to highlight at the end is its cost is significantly less as compared to other service providers.

3: AWS has more compliance certifications and security-related services than others.

4:AWS has rich documentation and support, making it easy for users to get started and troubleshoot any issues. AWS offers a range of support plans, including 24/7 support for critical issues of its users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Cloud?

1:AWS offers per-hour billing, and the data transmission format is generally encrypted in the case of its competitor; I sometimes feel insecure.

2:One more thing I dislike about AWS takes 15-20 mins to spin up a simple website.

3:AWS is a proprietary platform; once an application is built on AWS, it can be challenging to migrate to another cloud platform, which may limit users' flexibility and increase costs in the long run. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AWS Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?

AWS solving the problem of Infrastructure on demand , initially we need to buy huge servers now we don't need to buy any physical servers we can just simply scale depending on our needs , now in times of sales one of my clients they use AWS now sales season very high crowd visits their website and after-sales period sales drop to normal rate so they can't predict the number of customers and they cant buy large physical server without knowing the numbers ,so here AWS helped us to scale in and out depending on their need.

What do you like best about Amazon DocumentDB?

AWS documentDB is very easy to setup and configure JSON doc database.it is highly scalable and can encrypt clusters using keys which is very helpful. During my role as an intern in the company, we implemented the aws document db to store data and scaled it as per the firm requirments. also, it was very consistent, and aws support was beneficial during our project implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon DocumentDB?

AWS documented was very useful and performed really well but the main drawback was lack of multi-region support, which AWS can and should fix going forward; other than that, AWS document DB is as good as it can get Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Amazon DocumentDB solving and how is that benefiting you?

The main problem we faced was storing our JSON data and other files which needed to be encrypted, Hence AWS document DB was our perfect choice as we demonstrated its ability to encrypt data in our Final year project and used its same feature as an intern in our company. therefore, it major problem of encryption and benefitted us greatly throughout our role as an intern in the firm Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Amazon DocumentDB?

As it is a fully managed service, which means that AWS takes care of all of the administrative tasks, such as scaling, patching, backups, and monitoring, it makes it very easy for me to handle my application instead of worrying about database management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon DocumentDB?

One thing that makes me consider my decision of using Amazon DocumentDB is its cost. It becomes more expensive as data volumes grow and additional instances are added to handle increasing traffic loads Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Amazon DocumentDB solving and how is that benefiting you?

As it is a fully managed database offering by AWS, It has solved the problem of managing the database by ourselves and helped us focus on application logic. Also as it is MongoDB compatible, it's not a very new concept that we needed to learn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Amazon DocumentDB?

AWS Document DB is a fully managed DB. Also, it is compatible with Mongo DB. Highly manageable, fault-tolerant and easy to create and destroy the infra as and when needed. It also has instant crash recovery. The security part is also good for the Document DB Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon DocumentDB?

I am not satisfied with the updates they are releasing; I have experienced slowness with the new updates. Many features supported by SQL is not supported here which makes it little hard to handle Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Amazon DocumentDB solving and how is that benefiting you?

Document DB gets integrated with Mongo DB quickly. No schema is required at the time of DB creation. It is a NoSQL offering from AWS. The DB backup and the availability of the instance at the time of the crash of the main DB are very good Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
