QUESTION: 11

True or false: For an online game, it is better to use DynamoDB than a relational database engine.

This is false.
This is true because DynamoDB has all the functionalities of a relational database.

However, if the game becomes successful, it may rapidly grow to millions of users and generate tens (or even hundreds) of thousands of writes and reads per second. It may also create terabytes or more of data per day.
