When using a document data store as your service’s source of truth, you may need to share the changes of this source with other downstream systems. The data events that are happening within this data store can be converted to business events, which can then be sourced into multiple microservices that implement different business functionalities. […]

January 2023: Please refer to Accelerate Amazon DynamoDB data access in AWS Glue jobs using the new AWS Glue DynamoDB Export connector  for more recent updates on using Amazon Glue to extract data from Amazon DynamoDB.

August 30, 2023: Amazon Kinesis Data Analytics has been renamed to Amazon Managed Service for Apache Flink. Read the announcement in the AWS News Blog and learn more. Many organizations have accelerated their adoption of stream data processing technologies in an effort to more quickly derive actionable insights from their data. Frequently, it is required […]

AWS Database Migration Service (DMS) announced support of Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (Amazon MSK) and self-managed Apache Kafka clusters as target. With AWS DMS you can replicate ongoing changes from any DMS supported sources such as Amazon Aurora (MySQL and PostgreSQL-compatible), Oracle, and SQL Server to Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (Amazon MSK) and self-managed Apache Kafka clusters.
In this post, we use an e-commerce use case and set up the entire pipeline with the order data being persisted in an Aurora MySQL database. We use AWS DMS to load and replicate this data to Amazon MSK. We then use the data to generate a live graph on our dashboard application.

In this post, we show you how to integrate Amazon DocumentDB with Amazon ES so you can run full text search queries over your Amazon DocumentDB data. Specifically, we show you how to use an AWS Lambda function to stream events from your Amazon DocumentDB cluster’s change stream to an Amazon ES domain so you can run full text search queries on the data.

Managed Blockchain follows an event-driven architecture. We can open up a wide range of analytic approaches by streaming events to Amazon Kinesis. For instance, we could analyze events in near-real time with Kinesis Data Analytics, perform petabyte scale data warehousing with Amazon RedShift, or use the Hadoop ecosystem with Amazon EMR. This allows us to use the right approach for every blockchain analytics use case.
In this post, we show you one approach that uses Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose to capture, monitor, and aggregate events into a dataset, and analyze it with Amazon Athena using standard SQL.
