In this session, we cover a purpose-built strategy for databases, where you choose the right tool for the job. We explain why your application should drive the requirements of a database, not the other way around. We introduce AWS databases that are purpose-built for your application scenarios. We explain why different database services solve different aspects of an application. We demo application scenarios that lend themselves well to specific data services. If you’re building modern applications requiring high performance, scale, and functional databases, and trying to determine which relational and nonrelational data services to use, this session is for you.
