HAQM Kinesis Data Streams for HAQM DynamoDB now supports AWS CloudFormation, which means you can enable streaming to an HAQM Kinesis data stream on your DynamoDB tables with CloudFormation templates. By streaming your DynamoDB data changes to a Kinesis data stream, you can build advanced streaming applications with HAQM Kinesis services. For example, HAQM Kinesis Data Analytics reduces the complexity of building, managing, and integrating with Apache Flink, and provides built-in functions to filter, aggregate, and transform streaming data for advanced analytics. You also can use HAQM Kinesis Data Firehose to take advantage of managed streaming delivery of DynamoDB table data to other AWS services such as HAQM Elasticsearch Service, HAQM Redshift, and HAQM S3.
