Embrace event-driven computing: Amazon expands DynamoDB with streams, cross-region replication, and database triggers

All Things Distributed

Streams provide you with the underlying infrastructure to create new applications, such as continuously updated free-text search indexes, caches, or other creative extensions requiring up-to-date table changes. You can also use triggers to power many modern Internet of Things (IoT) use cases. DynamoDB Cross-region Replication.

A one size fits all database doesn't fit anyone

All Things Distributed

Use cases such as gaming, ad tech, and IoT lend themselves particularly well to the key-value data model where the access patterns require low-latency Gets/Puts for known key values. The purpose of DynamoDB is to provide consistent single-digit millisecond latency for any scale of workloads.

Expanding the Cloud – An AWS Region is coming to Hong Kong

All Things Distributed

This enables customers to serve content to their end users with low latency, giving them the best application experience. In 2008, AWS opened a point of presence (PoP) in Hong Kong to enable customers to serve content to their end users with low latency. Since then, AWS has added two more PoPs in Hong Kong, the latest in 2016.

AnyLog: a grand unification of the Internet of things

The Morning Paper

Despite the "Internet of Things" featuring prominently in the title, there’s nothing particular to IoT in the technical solution at all. Caching of query results on the other hand, looks like a good business model, at large enough scale these might amount to pretty much the same thing).

Helios: hyperscale indexing for the cloud & edge – part 1

The Morning Paper

It’s limited by the laws of physics in terms of end-to-end latency. Industrial IoT use cases are an example here. We saw earlier that there is end-user pressure to replace batch systems with much lower latency online systems. It makes heavy use of comparatively expensive data-center computing facilities. Emphasis mine ).
