Amazon DynamoDB Customers
Glidewell Dental
"The ease of integration, cost, speed, and predictable performance of Amazon DynamoDB have enabled multiple Glidewell Dental teams to quickly access data in parallel and conduct their own analytics. We use DynamoDB as a unified way of storing our data, allowing us to focus on the business outcomes rather than on the solution architecture."
Kunal Patil, Manager – Automation Engineering, Glidewell Dental
TMAP
TMAP, Korea’s leading navigation service provider, faced performance and operational challenges from hardware constraints, and from applying schema changes to driving history data.
“The driver safety score workload previously stored user behavior in an on-premises Oracle RAC cluster. Further, our Oracle database version was approaching end of service, which required capex and overheard to upgrade. We migrated the driver safety workload to Amazon DynamoDB to replace Oracle. DynamoDB auto scaling dynamically modifies resources based on traffic levels, helping to maintain consistent performance at any scale with no overhead. DynamoDB enables us to apply data changes at the client level without needing to implement time consuming database maintenance. Migrating to DynamoDB freed TMAP of the costs associated with purchasing physical servers, SAN storage, and enterprise software licenses thereby lowering our costs by 43%.“
- SangHun Kwon, Cloud Database Engineer, TMAP Mobility
Rapid7
Rapid7, a leading provider of security data solutions, was able to increase data processing speeds by 50% for their write workloads and 33% for read workloads.
“Scaling our clusters might have taken 60 minutes in the past to get servers configured and deployed. Now, we can provision in a matter of minutes, enabling our cloud and data engineers to focus on product innovation.” — Andrew Keely, Senior Manager, Software Engineering, Rapid7
NTT DOCOMO, INC.
NTT DOCOMO, INC. provides the video streaming service Lemino, which supports highly anticipated live broadcasts, such as sporting events, concerts, and reality shows. For the back end of application containers, Amazon DynamoDB successfully supported request rates exceeding tens of thousands per second across several components.
“Previously, when faced with a sudden surge in access, the connection limits became bottlenecks. For processes that needed to withstand request spikes, we adopted Amazon DynamoDB, which is fully managed.” Akio Kudou / Manager / Product Design Department Ⅰ Smart Life Business Company / NTT DOCOMO, INC.
PubNub
PubNub, used by more than 350,000 developers as part of a modern application stack to power features that require near-real-time communication and collaboration between users, was able to focus on innovation resulting in greater staff productivity.
“Amazon DynamoDB has built-in global tables and replication that PubNub could use to offer a high level of message bus technology at a database level. By migrating to DynamoDB, the company could then provide high local performance and reliability to customers connecting across different regions.” says Jonas Gray, vice president of business and corporate development at PubNub.
Careem
With more than 50 million customers across 14 countries, Careem was able to improve the agility and reliability of its ride-hailing app without causing downtime for its services.
“We’re getting locations from millions of drivers every few seconds,” says Khurram Naseem, senior director of engineering at Careem. “We needed a scalable solution for so much data, and Amazon DynamoDB was just about perfect.”
Zomato
Zomato’s billing platform processes over 10 million events daily, issuing payments to over 350,000 restaurant partners. Previously, Zomato ran this workload on TiDB, but once their platform’s usage hit a tipping point, they began to face database throughput and latency challenges that impacted their SLAs. To minimize impact, Zomato over-provisioned their database instances to support periods of peak traffic, which lowered utilization and increased costs. Managing the durability of their system, manually synchronizing replicas, monitoring storage, and deploying version upgrades also required significant operational overhead. By migrating their billing platform from TiDB to DynamoDB, Zomato increased database throughput by 4x, reduced latency by 90%, and lowered costs by 50%, while significantly reducing operational overhead.
Amazon Ads
Amazon Ads migrated to DynamoDB and achieved up to 99.999% availability with increased developer efficiency at no additional cost.
"Amazon Ads Measurement provides metrics that helps advertisers better understand the return on their advertising spend. Providing this critical information requires processing more than 100B events, storing over 4 petabytes of data, with peak traffic during events like Thursday Night Football and Prime Day reaching 90 million reads and 5 millions writes per second. Amazon Ads previously self-managed this workload on hundreds of Apache HBase instances. They faced challenges from time-consuming software updates, managing custom HBase code modifications, limited scale-down capabilities, and high operational overhead from dealing with hardware failures, instance type upgrades, and maintenance. This overhead led to reduced resiliency due to deploying in a single AWS Region. By migrating this service to DynamoDB global tables, Amazon Ads increased their service availability to 99.999%, reduced developer ramp-up from 3 months to 2 weeks, and reduced ticket load by 40% with no additional cost. The increased developer efficiency resulting from migrated to a fully managed service also enabled Amazon Ads to take additional charters with
no additional developer headcount."
