February 9, 2024: Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose has been renamed to Amazon Data Firehose. Read the AWS What’s New post to learn more. In this post, we talk about designing a cloud-native data warehouse as a replacement for our legacy data warehouse built on a relational database. At the beginning of the design process, the […]

This blog post discusses an efficient architecture to stream, analyze, and store Microsoft Exchange Server logs. For frequent queries and operational analytics, we use Amazon Elasticsearch Service (Amazon ES) and Kibana for real-time visualization.

Recently, AWS launched a new feature of AWS Application Auto Scaling that let you define scaling policies that automatically add and remove shards to an Amazon Kinesis Data Stream. For more detailed information about this feature, see the Application Auto Scaling GitHub repository. As your streaming information increases, you require a scaling solution to accommodate […]

Understanding Windows system and service health on a global scale is challenging. You capture server log data, and then analyze and manipulate the data in real time to create actionable telemetry insights. Amazon Kinesis Agent for Microsoft Windows makes it efficient to ingest Windows server log data into your AWS ecosystem for analysis. This blog […]

A complete data pipeline that includes Amazon Kinesis Agent for Microsoft Windows (KA4W) can help you analyze and monitor the performance, security, and availability of Windows-based services. You can build near-real-time dashboards and alarms for your Windows services. You can also use visualization and business intelligence tools such as Amazon Athena, Kibana, Amazon QuickSight, and […]

In this blog post, we describe the complete solution for collecting, analyzing, and visualizing VPC flow log data. In addition, we created a single AWS CloudFormation template that lets you efficiently deploy this solution into your own account.

August 2024: This post was reviewed and updated for accuracy. In part 1 of this series, we demonstrated how to build a data pipeline in support of a data lake. We used key AWS services such as Amazon Kinesis Data Streams, Kinesis Data Analytics, Kinesis Data Firehose, and AWS Lambda. In part 2, we discuss […]

In this two-part series, we show you how to build a data pipeline in support of a data lake. We use key AWS services such as Amazon Kinesis Data Streams, Kinesis Data Analytics, Kinesis Data Firehose, and AWS Lambda. In part 2, we focus on generating simple inferences from that data that can support RTP parameters.

In this post, we’ll show you how to deploy an Ethereum blockchain using the AWS Blockchain Templates, deploy a smart contract, and build a serverless analytics pipeline for that contract based around AWS Lambda, Amazon Kinesis, and Amazon Athena.
