With the ever-increasing popularity of streaming content, the need to enable users to collect, store, capture, and process large amounts of data from their distributed streams is crucial. By using Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose, you can capture massive amounts of live video data from millions of sources, and then make them available to consumers in a data-efficient and cost-effective format.
Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose lets you quickly load streaming data into data stores, data lakes, and analytics services. You can use it to capture, transform, and deliver streaming data to a range of Amazon services, including Amazon Redshift, Amazon S3, Amazon Elasticsearch Service. You can also use Kinesis to connect to generic HTTP endpoints and service providers such as New Relic, MongoDB, Datadog, and Splunk.
Firehose is a fully managed service that automatically scales to match your data throughput. You can also use it to compress, transform, and encrypt your data streams. This feature minimizes the amount of storage required for your streaming data and increases security.
Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose integrates with Amazon CloudWatch metrics so you can collect and analyze your data streaming metrics. For example, you could monitor the IncomingBytes and IncomingRecords metrics to track data ingested into Kinesis Data Firehose from your data producers. You can use Kinesis Analytics to analyze and process your data streams using standard SQL. It also comes with pre-built stream processing templates to help you manage your data analytics.
By integrating Amazon CloudWatch with the MetricFire platform, you can display your streaming metrics on aesthetically pleasing dashboards. MetricFire's advanced filtering lets you choose only the data views you want to see and discard the rest. You can also set up simple rules to discard data you no longer need, plus receive alerts via email or Slack when your data streaming is doing something it shouldn't.
The Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) is a web service you can use to set up and manage relational databases in the AWS Cloud. It provides a cost-efficient way to leverage fully managed and scalable industry-standard relational databases without the need to look after everyday database administration tasks.
When you subscribe to Amazon RDS, you get your own cloud-based server, CPU, memory, storage and IOPS, all bundled together. You can set up, manage, and scale each of these services independently. If you need more CPU or more storage, you can quickly allocate them. Amazon RDS manages your backups, software patching, plus it includes automatic failure detection and recovery. You can use different database flavors, including MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, Oracle and Microsoft SQL Server.
You can configure Amazon RDS for high availability and failover by setting up a primary instance and a synchronous secondary instance. Plus, you can control who can access your RDS databases by using AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) services to assign users permissions.
Amazon RDS is fully integrated with Amazon CloudWatch, allowing you to monitor your database's health and performance. By subscribing to Amazon RDS events, you can be notified about changes to a DB instance, DB parameter group, DB security group or DB snapshot.
More importantly, with Metricfire, you can turbocharge your Amazon RDS monitoring services. By integrating Amazon CloudWatch with the Metricfire platform, you can display your metrics on aesthetically pleasing dashboards. MetricFire's advanced filtering lets you choose only the data views you want to see and discard the rest. You can also set up simple rules to discard data you no longer keep, plus receive alerts via email or Slack when a database issue is detected.
