About
Amazon DynamoDB is a serverless, NoSQL, fully managed database service that supports key-value and document data models.
Memcached is an open-source event-based key-value store that keeps data in memory to deliver very low latency access and high throughput.
It can handle over 200,000 operations per second on fast hardware, uses multi-threading to leverage multiple CPU cores, and applies Least Recently Used cache eviction policy when it runs out of memory.
