.Amazon DynamoDB is a fully managed proprietary NoSQL database service that is offered by Amazon.com as part of the Amazon Web Services portfolio. You can use DynamoDB to create a database table that can store and retrieve any amount of data, and serve any level of request traffic. DynamoDB exposes a similar data model and derives its name from Dynamo, but has a different underlying implementation.This book is a practical, example-oriented guide that begins with an introduction to DynamoDB, how it started, what it is, and its features. It then introduces you to DynamoDBs data model, demonstrating CRUD operations on the data model. Once you get an understanding of the data model, you will be able to dive deep into the DynamoDB architecture to understand its flexibility, scalability, and reliability.The book also gives you plenty of best practices you should follow in order to achieve time and cost efficiency. Later, you will explore some advanced topics such as CloudWatch Monitoring, the AWS security token service, and the use of IAM to perform access control management.The book discusses a variety of use cases that will help you get a practical sense of DynamoDB. Finally, the book ends with a discussion on using DynamoDB as a backend for Android/iOS mobile applications with sample code that will help you build your own applications.What You Will Learn:
Comprehend the DynamoDB data model and how to build the efficient schema of DynamoDB tables;
Decipher the architecture of DynamoDB and its core features;
Understand how DynamoDB manages ring membership and handles partial failures;
Get acquainted with the AWS security token service and learn how DynamoDB deals with authentication and authorization;
Integrate DynamoDB with other AWS services in order to form a complete application ecosystem on AWS Cloud;
Explore third-party tools and libraries to efficiently use DynamoDB to help to autoscale, test, and back up/archive;
Familiarize yourself with mobile application development using DynamoDB at the backend.Implement DynamoDB as a backend to your iOS and Android mobile applications.
Explore how DynamoDB can be integrated with other AWS offerings such as EMR, Redshift, Cloudsearch, and more.
Equip yourself with best practices to improve the time and cost performance of your application through interactive tutorials.Who This Book Is For:
If you have interest in DynamoDB and want to know what DynamoDB is all about and become proficient in using it, this is the book for you. If you are an intermediate user who wishes to enhance your knowledge of DynamoDB, this book is aimed at you.

The database technology world has evolved tremendously over the last decade. In the recent few years, there has been a huge data explosion that is driven primarily by data mining businesses and data generated by the proliferation of mobile and social applications. While the volumes have increased beyond anyone's imagination, the way we access the information of this data and the expected user experience has also changed phenomenally. For instance, when you search for information, you subconsciously use natural language text and expect to see what you were looking for on the first page, all within the blink of an eye. Also, you want this experience on a mobile device as well, even when not connected to your home and office network. So, modern applications can no longer use the traditional relational database to achieve the scale and speed that these applications demand. Welcome to the world of NoSQL!
While there are several open source NoSQL solutions available, such as Cassandra and MongoDB, in this book, Tanmay Deshpande introduces Amazon AWS DynamoDB, which is currently in development. DynamoDB is an excellent implementation of NoSQL available as a cloud service. This book should be a must have in a cloud programmer's toolkit, especially for those seeking to scale up their existing mobile cloud applications on the AWS cloud platform.
So what does a programmer expect out of a technical book? I'll draw an analogy using cookbooks. You see most cookbooks with beautiful and enticing recipe pictures; however, when you try the recipes, even if you are able to complete the book, the outcome will be totally different. The recipes are not customized to the reader's level of ability and local accessibility to the ingredients and kitchen appliances. There are technical and programming books too that suffer similarly. Not only should a programming book be easy to read and follow, the programmer should also be able to meet his real-life product development requirements.
I know the author well, and most importantly, he is a programmer by trade. This is his second book on the topic of Big Data. He has learned from readers' feedback from his previous book. I believe this book has all the coding samples that are tried and tested before they were included in the book. This book endeavors to guide the programmer through practical step-by-step processes that a software programmer would go through to speed up NoSQL integration.
I can't wait to try out DynamoDB myself, and I am sure you will find this book useful to transition from relational to NoSQL database.
