12/21/2021, 3:02 PMIt's interesting, I think there's some bitterness here as well as some marketing for his new employer.
In practice he built and inspired others to build huge and complex systems on DynamoDB.
Alex Debrie chimed in to basically say that while some of those things would be nice (particularly range style queries on PKs) that they also mean it's easier to create scalability problems and what he called 'footgun moments', so there are tradeoffs

12/21/2021, 3:09 PMFor sure. Someone in the comments said "sounds like mysql". Many tools to choose from and they all have tradeoffs. I actually heard about Rick through Alex Debrie. I learned a lot from his talk but for me personally Alex was more helpful with his style of teaching.
