A Cheatsheet on Comparing Key-Value Stores
A key-value store is a database that stores data as a collection of key-value pairs. We compare 15 key-value stores across different parameters like replication style, consistency protocol, node discovery approach, and partitioning approach.
The databases covered are:
Redis
MongoDB
Cassandra
DynamoDB
Neo4j
Couchbase
CosmosDB
HBase
Firestore
ScyllaDB
CouchDB
Zookeeper
ETCD
Riak
FoundationDB
Over to you: Which other database will you add to the list?
A Handy Cheatsheet for the Most Popular Cloud Services
What’s included?
AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Oracle Cloud
Cloud servers
Databases
Message queues and streaming platforms
Load balancing, DNS routing software
Security
Monitoring

Which Database Should I Use on AWS?
This question often comes up when we start deploying an application on AWS. There are many options available to choose from.
Broadly, there are three categories of databases:
Relational
The two main choices in this space are AWS RDS and AWS Aurora.
AWS RDS is a managed relational DB service that supports MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, etc. AWS Aurora is a cloud-native relational database that supports high availability and scalabilityNon-Relational
The three main choices in this category are DynamoDB, DocumentDB, and AWS Keyspaces.
DynamoDB is a fully managed NoSQL key-value datastore. DocumentDB is a managed document database compatible with MongoDB. AWS Keyspaces is a managed, wide-column Apache Cassandra service for large-scale workloads.In-memory
AWS Elasticache is the most popular option in this category. It is a fully managed Redis or Memcached service for sub-millisecond latency.
