* Amazon SimpleDB is a web service providing the core database * functions of data indexing and querying in the cloud. By offloading * the time and effort associated with building and operating a web-scale * database, SimpleDB provides developers the freedom to focus on * application development. *
** A traditional, clustered relational database requires a sizable * upfront capital outlay, is complex to design, and often requires * extensive and repetitive database administration. Amazon SimpleDB is * dramatically simpler, requiring no schema, automatically indexing your * data and providing a simple API for storage and access. This approach * eliminates the administrative burden of data modeling, index * maintenance, and performance tuning. Developers gain access to this * functionality within Amazon's proven computing environment, are able * to scale instantly, and pay only for what they use. *
