On December 1, 2024, we announced the general availability of Amazon MemoryDB Multi-Region, a fully managed, active-active, multi-Region database that you can use to build applications with up to 99.999% availability, microsecond read, and single-digit millisecond write latencies across multiple Regions. In this post, we cover the benefits of MemoryDB Multi-Region, how it works, its disaster recovery capabilities, the consistency and conflict resolution mechanisms, and how to monitor replication lag across Regions.

Iterate.ai is an enterprise AI platform company delivering innovative AI solutions to industries such as retail, finance, healthcare, and quick-service restaurants. Among its standout offerings is Frontline, a workforce management platform powered by AI, designed to support and empower Frontline workers. Available on both the Apple App Store and Google Play, Frontline uses advanced AI tools to streamline operational efficiency and enhance communication among dispersed workforces. In this post, we give an overview of durable semantic caching in Amazon MemoryDB, and share how Iterate used this functionality to accelerate and cost-optimize Frontline.

Amazon MemoryDB is a Valkey– and Redis OSS-compatible, durable, in-memory database service that delivers ultra-fast performance. With MemoryDB, data is stored in memory with Multi-AZ durability, which enables you to achieve microsecond read and single-digit millisecond write latency and high throughput. MemoryDB is often used for building durable microservices and latency-sensitive database workloads such as […]

Today, Amazon MemoryDB announces support for Valkey version 7.2, with 30% lower instance hour pricing as compared to Amazon MemoryDB for Redis OSS. With MemoryDB for Valkey, there is no charge for data written up to 10 TB per month, and then billed at $0.04/GB for any data written over 10 TB. Valkey is an […]

As of October 8th 2024, we’ve added support for Valkey 7.2 on Amazon ElastiCache and Amazon MemoryDB, our fully managed in-memory services. In this post, we discuss the AWS contributions to Valkey, AWS commitment to making Valkey more accessible for ElastiCache and MemoryDB customers, and how customers can start using it in their applications.

In this post, we present the concepts needed to use a persistent semantic cache in MemoryDB with Knowledge Bases for Amazon Bedrock, and the steps to create a chatbot application that uses the cache. We use MemoryDB as the caching layer for this use case because it delivers the fastest vector search performance at the highest recall rates among popular vector databases on AWS. We use Knowledge Bases for Amazon Bedrock as a vector database because it implements and maintains the RAG functionality for our application without the need of writing additional code.

In today’s rapidly advancing world of generative artificial intelligence (AI), businesses across diverse industries are transforming customer experiences through the power of real-time search. By harnessing the untapped potential of unstructured data ranging from text to images and videos, organizations are able to redefine the standards of engagement and personalization. A key component of this […]

In this post, we explore the key factors to consider when selecting a database for your generative AI applications. We focus on high-level considerations and service characteristics that are relevant to fully managed databases with vector search capabilities currently available on AWS. We examine how these databases differ in terms of their behavior and performance, and provide guidance on how to make an informed decision based on your specific requirements.

We’re excited to announce Valkey General Language Independent Driver for the Enterprise (GLIDE), an open source permissively licensed (Apache 2.0 license) Valkey client library. In this post, we discuss the benefits of Valkey GLIDE.

In-memory databases are ideal for applications that require microsecond response times and high throughput, such as caching, gaming, session stores, geo-spatial services, queuing, real-time data analytics and feature stores for machine learning (ML). In this In-Memory Database Bluebook, we provide you with a list of Amazon ElastiCache and Amazon MemoryDB for Redis code samples and […]
