Tzu-Li (Gordon) Tai updated FLINK-4582:
---------------------------------------
    Description: 
AWS DynamoDB is a NoSQL database service that has a CDC-like (change data 
capture) feature called DynamoDB Streams 
(http://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/Streams.html), 
which is a stream feed of item-level table activities.

The DynamoDB Streams shard abstraction follows that of Kinesis Streams with 
only a slight difference in resharding behaviours, so it is possible to build 
on the internals of our Flink Kinesis Consumer for an exactly-once DynamoDB 
Streams source.

I propose an API something like this:
{code}
DataStream dynamoItemsCdc = 
  FlinkKinesisConsumer.asDynamoDBStream(tableNames, schema, config)
{code}

The feature adds more connectivity to popular AWS services for Flink, and 
combining what Flink has for exactly-once semantics, out-of-core state 
backends, and queryable state with CDC can have very strong use cases. For this 
feature there should only be an extra dependency to the AWS Java SDK for 
DynamoDB, which has Apache License 2.0.
