We were pushing the limits of what was a leading commercial database at the time and were unable to sustain the availability, scalability and performance needs that our growing Amazon business demanded. Today, DynamoDB powers the next wave of high-performance, internet-scale applications that would overburden traditional relational databases.

Historically, NoSQL paid a lot of attention to tradeoffs between consistency, fault-tolerance and performance to serve geographically distributed systems, low-latency or highly available applications. However, consistency is a very expensive thing in distributed systems, so it can be traded not only to availability. Consistency.
