Tigris vs DynamoDB
Tigris is a Serverless Multi-Cloud NoSQL database that is 4x cheaper than DynamoDB.
Tigris is built by the team that built and operated Uber's core database platform Docstore. Tigris is built with the same vision of modernizing the application data stack, vastly improving developer velocity and reducing the database infrastructure cost and complexity.
Uber ended up migrating from DynamoDB to Docstore saving $6M per year in operational costs.
