After the launch of the AWS APAC (Hong Kong) Region, there will be 19 Availability Zones in Asia Pacific for customers to build flexible, scalable, secure, and highly available applications. This enables customers to serve content to their end users with low latency, giving them the best application experience.

In recent years GPU development that was originally funded by the gaming market (and ended up being used as a supercomputer accelerator) has been dominated by use in the AI/ML accelerator market. Many HPC workloads synchronize work on a barrier, and work much better if there’s a consistently narrow latency distribution without a long tail.

As I have talked about before, one of the reasons why we built Amazon DynamoDB was that Amazon was pushing the limits of what was a leading commercial database at the time and we were unable to sustain the availability, scalability, and performance needs that our growing Amazon.com business demanded. The opposite is true.

Redis's microsecond latency has made it a de facto choice for caching. Four years ago, as part of our AWS fast data journey, we introduced Amazon ElastiCache for Redis , a fully managed, in-memory data store that operates at microsecond latency. Whether it is gaming, adtech, travel, or retail—speed wins, it's simple.

A more scalable option is to decouple these systems and build a pipe that connects these engines and feeds all change records from the source database to the data warehouse (e.g., Amazon Redshift) and Elasticsearch machines. DynamoDB Streams simplifies and improves this design pattern with a distributed systems approach. Summing It All Up.

Similarly, relationships are essential in many other use cases such as financial modeling, risk analysis, genome research, search, gaming, and others. When using relational databases, traversing relationships requires expensive table JOIN operations, causing significantly increased latency as table size and query complexity grow.
