Re: Using Amazon Kinesis as Samza Backend

Hi, Christopher,

I am glad that you are interested in the Kinesis integration to Samza! Yes,
Renato's implementation is so far the most complete one. However, I think
that it might not handle dynamic shard split/merge cases. Aditya Toomula in
our team is currently working on a complete proposal to address these
issues as listed in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SAMZA-489. He
will be able to share more details.

Using Amazon Kinesis as Samza Backend

2017-08-06 Thread Christopher Kelly
Hi all!

I am relatively new to using Samza and am trying to hook it up with Kinesis
rather than Kafka as the messaging bus behind it.  There are a few
references to functionality intended to make working with Kinesis a bit
easier (in the latest release notes for example), but I haven't seen much
code with examples.

I think the most complete implementation I've seen is this github repo:
https://github.com/renato2099/SamzaKinesis, but I did notice that it hasn't
been updated for a bit.  Has anyone had any experience working with Kinesis
as the backend? Any guidance would be appreciated!

Thanks,
Chris
