Build Modern Applications with AWS NoSQL Databases

An AWS expert will help you understand how to build applications with complex data characteristics and millisecond-level performance requirements for your databases. You will learn how to use purpose-built databases to create typical modern applications with different access patterns and real-time scaling requirements. Through a series of presentations, guided tours, group discussions, and hands-on exercises, you will get to know the advanced features of Amazon DynamoDB, Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility), and Amazon ElastiCache for Redis.
