Amazon Kinesis Data Streams has changed the license of the Amazon Kinesis Producer Library from the Amazon Software License to Apache License 2.0. This change allows you to easily build and integrate the Amazon Kinesis Producer Library with other Apache software projects such as Apache Flink and Apache Spark. 

Amazon Kinesis Data Streams is a massively scalable and durable real-time data streaming service. The Amazon Kinesis Producer Library makes it simple to achieve high write throughput to a Kinesis data stream.
