Policy: AWS > Well-Architected Tool > AWS Well-Architected Framework > Performance Efficiency > PERF 04. How do you select your database solution?

The optimal database solution for a system varies based on requirements for availability, consistency, partition tolerance, latency, durability, scalability, and query capability. Many systems use different database solutions for various subsystems and enable different features to improve performance. Selecting the wrong database solution and features for a system can lead to lower performance efficiency.

See PERF 04. How do you select your database solution? for more information.
