IoT on AWS – Intro to Kinesis

While IoT Core can route your device messages directly to subscribers, you gain flexibility, scalability and reliability when you put a Kinesis stream in the data path. Kinesis is a persistent data log that accepts messages from multiple producers, buffers them for up to a week, and allows multiple consumers to read them.

This talk will cover the high-level design of Kinesis, how it scales, how clients can retrieve records that have been stored in it, and the use of Kinesis Analytics to to transform data and extract outliers.
