Serving real-time, tiled, point data directly from DynamoDB part 2 - the plan
I previously wrote about something I wanted to do with DynamoDB and geospatial data, and got a lot of responses on Twitter.
In the end, I think I’m going to go with a hybrid approach – using Uber’s H3 geocoding algorithm to generate clusters and to take care of indexing points, and then generating vector tiles as a separate process based on that data.
Here’s a bird’s-eye view of how the data will flow.
