Real-Time Live Sports Updates Using AWS AppSync

Main stack — The main stack handles data pre-processing and real-time delivery of data. Data from a third-party feed provider is ingested into Amazon Kinesis Data Steams, then an AWS Lambda function transforms and enriches the data using configuration information from the Amazon DynamoDB table. The Lambda function also calls AWS AppSync to invoke a GraphQL mutation, save the data to a DynamoDB table, and notify subscribers of events in near real-time.

 

Ingestion stacks — The two optional ingestion stacks can be provisioned to handle data ingestion. They can deploy an Amazon API Gateway REST API and an AWS Step Functions workflow.

 

Notification stack — The notification stack uses a Lambda function to connect to Amazon Pinpoint and notify users via push notifications.

 

Simulation stack — The simulation stack demonstrates how the solution works and tests your customizations against a set of simulated sports games. It provides an interactive web application hosted in an Amazon Simple Storage Service bucket.
