Hi Sharma, Thanks for the quick response! Yes, before I sent out this question I google and only saw your presentation at AWSconf 2014 which related. Thanks for point out there is a work on the framework for doing so.
I am still looking for the guide or some related documents for implementing this for my poc trail. Thanks for again for the prompt response.
