In fact, this is been proven by our customers as Amazon Aurora remains the fastest growing service in AWS history. We are increasingly seeing customers wanting to build Internet-scale applications that require diverse data models. The opposite is true. What we experienced at Amazon.com was using a database beyond its intended purpose.

Study common complaints coming into customer service and sales team, study analytics for high bounce rates and conversion drops. Run performance experiments and measure outcomes — both on mobile and on desktop (for example, with Google Analytics ). Yet often, analytics alone doesn’t provide a complete picture.

To get accurate results and goals though, first study your analytics to see what your users are on. Estimated Input Latency tells us if we are hitting that threshold, and ideally, it should be below 50ms. You can then mimic the 90th percentile’s experience for testing.

For example, the most fundamental abstraction trade-off has always been latency versus throughput. Modern CPUs strongly favor lower latency of operations with clock cycles in the nanoseconds and we have built general purpose software architectures that can exploit these low latencies very well. Where to go from here?

Achieving strict consistency can come at a cost in update or read latency, and may result in lower throughput. Amazon S3 and Amazon SimpleDB are examples of AWS services that are designed using these high-availability principles using an eventual consistency model. Lowest read latency. Higher read latency. No stale reads.
