NoSQL Databases and Document Data Models (Context in Provided Sources)
The provided source materials discuss NoSQL databases and the document data model primarily in the context of Amazon DynamoDB, not Amazon DocumentDB as a distinct service.
Amazon DynamoDB, described as a serverless, fully scalable NoSQL database, supports a flexible data model that includes both Key-Value and Document types.
AWS offers various NoSQL database services to cater to diverse application needs. Amazon DynamoDB is identified as a fully managed NoSQL database service optimized for high-performance applications, while Amazon Neptune is mentioned as a fully managed graph database service for highly connected data.
NoSQL databases can store data in flexible structures, often resembling JSON documents. This contrasts with the rigid row-and-column format typically found in SQL databases.
