Amazon Kinesis Streams

Amazon Kinesis Streams Destination plugin
Amazon Kinesis Streams is a highly scalable and durable real-time data streaming service provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS). The Kinesis Stream Destination Plugin in Calyptia Core allows you to easily stream and analyze your data by sending it directly to your Amazon Kinesis stream. With this plugin, you can configure your pipeline to collect various data types such as logs, metrics, traces, and events, and stream them to your Kinesis stream for real-time analysis and processing. The Kinesis Stream Destination Plugin provides a flexible and customizable way to integrate your data with your Kinesis stream, allowing you to tailor your streaming and analysis strategies to meet your specific needs.
