AWS Certified Data Analytics Specialty 2021 – Hands-On - Kinesis Scaling

The video tutorial explains how to scale Amazon Kinesis by adding or splitting shards to increase stream capacity. It covers shard merging to reduce capacity and save costs. The tutorial also discusses the impact of re-sharding on data order and how to handle it. Auto scaling is addressed, noting that it's not a native feature and requires manual implementation. Limitations of Kinesis scaling, such as the inability to perform parallel re-sharding, are highlighted.
