ABOUT

Built by the
DynamoDB
community

DynamoDB Day is a free, one-day virtual event for everyone who designs, builds, and operates with DynamoDB. Gain hard-won lessons from running mission-critical workloads, and discover how to keep them resilient, cost-efficient, and simple to operate.

Hear candid stories from community leaders like Alex DeBrie, the DynamoDB Product Team, and engineers from some of the world’s largest companies. Join live discussions and Q&A sessions on data modeling trade-offs, partition key design, scaling patterns, data protection, and how teams maintain predictable performance, cost, and reliability at scale.

What you’ll learn

Protecting DynamoDB Data: What Works (and What Doesn't) for Resilience and Recovery

Ron Kimchi,
Co-Founder and CTO, Eon

Protecting DynamoDB data goes beyond taking snapshots. In this session, Ron Kimchi, Co-Founder and CTO at Eon, will share lessons learned from protecting large-scale DynamoDB environments—what actually works, and what doesn’t—when it comes to keeping data resilient, recoverable, and compliant at scale. He’ll compare real-world backup and recovery strategies, outline emerging best practices for enterprise workloads, and discuss how to build secure, scalable, and cost-efficient resilience without adding operational complexity. Learn more about Eon’s approach to cloud backup and recovery before the session.
