• Amazon Timestream is a fast, scalable, and serverless time series database
service for IoT and operational applications that makes it easy to store and
analyze trillions of events per day up to 1,000 times faster and at as little as

Additionally, you can use Amazon EC2 to host other non-relational database
technologies you may be working with.
Storage and backup of data and assets
There are numerous options within the AWS Cloud for storing, accessing, and backing
up your web application data and assets. Amazon S3 provides a highly available and
redundant object store. S3 is a great storage solution for static objects, such as images,
videos, and other static media. S3 also supports edge caching and streaming of these
assets by interacting with CloudFront.
