Amazon.com has launched its DynamoDB fully managed NoSQL database service, targeting businesses that need to deal with large amounts of data. The service will use the company’s traditional pay-as-you-go model, and Amazon will take care of the administrative side of things, such as hardware provisioning and configuration, replication and partitioning. DynamoDB is based on provisioned throughput, meaning that customers will state how much read/write throughput they need when they create database tables using the service.
