Hi Jiawei:

Sorry for the delayed reply.  When you mention certain records getting
skipped, is it from the same run or across different runs.  Any more
specific details on how/when records are lost?

FlinkDynamoDBStreamsConsumer is built on top of FlinkKinesisConsumer , with
similar offset management mechanism.  In theory it shouldn't lose
exactly-once semantics in the case of getting throttled.  We haven't run it
in any AWS kinesis analytics environment though.

Thanks.
