AWS Launches Amazon DynamoDB Global Tables
Global Tables builds upon DynamoDB’s global footprint to provide you with a fully managed, multi-region, and multi-master database that provides fast, local, read and write performance for massively scaled, global applications. Global Tables replicates your Amazon DynamoDB tables automatically across your choice of AWS regions.
Global Tables eliminates the difficult work of replicating data between regions and resolving update conflicts, enabling you to focus on your application’s business logic. In addition, Global Tables enables your applications to stay highly available even in the unlikely event of isolation or degradation of an entire region.
Global Tables is available today in five regions: US East (Ohio), US East (N. Virginia), US West (Oregon), EU (Ireland, and EU (Frankfurt). To learn more about Global Tables, visit https://aws.amazon.com/dynamodb/global-tables/.
