Advice on Amazon DynamoDB, Azure Cosmos DB, and Cloud Firestore

Needs advice
on
Amazon DynamoDB
and
Cloud Firestore
in
My Stack

We are building a social media app, where users will post images, like their
post, and make friends based on their interest. We are currently using Cloud
Firestore and Firebase Realtime Database. We are looking for another database
like Amazon DynamoDB; how much this decision can be efficient in terms of
pricing and overhead?

Hi, Akash,

I wouldn't make this decision without lots more information. Cloud Firestore has
a much richer metamodel (document-oriented) than Dynamo (key-value), and Dynamo
seems to be particularly restrictive. That is why it is so fast. There are many
needs in most applications to get lightning access to the members of a set, one
set at a time. Dynamo DB is a great choice. But, social media applications
generally need to be able to make long traverses across a graph. While you can
make almost any metamodel act like another one, with your own custom layers on
top of it, or just by writing a lot more code, it's a long way around to do that
with simple key-value sets. It's hard enough to traverse across networks of
collections in a document-oriented database. So, if you are moving, I think a
graph-oriented database like Amazon Neptune, or, if you might want built-in
reasoning, Allegro or Ontotext, would take the least programming, which is where
the most cost and bugs can be avoided. Also, managed systems are also less
costly in terms of people's time and system errors. It's easier to measure the
costs of managed systems, so they are often seen as more costly.

What are some alternatives to Amazon DynamoDB, Azure Cosmos DB, and Cloud
Firestore?
Google Cloud Datastore
Use a managed, NoSQL, schemaless database for storing non-relational data. Cloud
Datastore automatically scales as you need it and supports transactions as well
as robust, SQL-like queries.
MongoDB
MongoDB stores data in JSON-like documents that can vary in structure, offering
a dynamic, flexible schema. MongoDB was also designed for high availability and
scalability, with built-in replication and auto-sharding.
Amazon SimpleDB
Developers simply store and query data items via web services requests and
Amazon SimpleDB does the rest. Behind the scenes, Amazon SimpleDB creates and
manages multiple geographically distributed replicas of your data automatically
to enable high availability and data durability. Amazon SimpleDB provides a
simple web services interface to create and store multiple data sets, query your
data easily, and return the results. Your data is automatically indexed, making
it easy to quickly find the information that you need. There is no need to
pre-define a schema or change a schema if new data is added later. And scale-out
is as simple as creating new domains, rather than building out new servers.
MySQL
The MySQL software delivers a very fast, multi-threaded, multi-user, and robust
SQL (Structured Query Language) database server. MySQL Server is intended for
mission-critical, heavy-load production systems as well as for embedding into
mass-deployed software.
Amazon S3
Amazon Simple Storage Service provides a fully redundant data storage
infrastructure for storing and retrieving any amount of data, at any time, from
anywhere on the web
