# AWS Databases Services

Amazon offers many DB Services. Some of the common and noteworthy ones are as follows:

* Amazon RDS (PaaS) - Example: Amazon Aurora Platform
* Amazon DynamoDB (SaaS - DB as a service)
* Amazon Redshift (SaaS - DB as a service)
* Amazon Elasticache (SaaS - DB as a service)
* AWS Database Migration Service (DMS) - It is possible to move existing on-prem databases into AWS Cloud's RDS. This supports one time and continual migration of data. The pay for this migration is not much as it is only for the compute leveraged in migration process.

Additional Database Services can be as follows:

* **Document DB**: It is MongoDB compatible database, which is ideal to experiment in AWS for testing with MongoDB workloads. It is also a PaaS offering similar to RDS.
* **Neptune**: It is managed graph database service, which is ideal for mapping relationships between data points. Very useful for social media companies
* **MemoryDB:** It is redis compatible service ideal for a fast in-memory primary database &#x20;
* **Timestream:** It is serverless time series database service ideal for storing and retrieving time series data points. Very useful for IoT sensors
