Storage

S3

Use AWS S3 (Simple Storage Service) for saving objects like images, videos, files, etc.

DynamoDB

Use DynamoDB when you want to store the document or key-value pair data.

It doesn’t work well for relational operations. Although it can be used for the storage of binary objects, it was designed for the storage of structured textual/JSON data.
