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

The video tutorial covers various methods to consume data from Kinesis Data Streams, including the use of the Kinesis SDK, Kinesis Client Library (KCL), and AWS Lambda. It explains the classic consumer polling mechanism, the constraints on throughput and latency, and how multiple consumers affect performance. The tutorial also discusses the deprecated Kinesis Connector Library and its alternatives, such as Kinesis Firehose and AWS Lambda. Key features of KCL, like checkpointing and shard discovery, are highlighted, along with the importance of DynamoDB provisioning. Finally, the video explores AWS Lambda's capabilities for real-time data processing and notifications.
