This is a destructive action that can not be undone.

Proceeding with this action will delete the firehose and do this and that and the other thing too.

Type "delete" below to confirm deletion.

A tag consists of a case-sensitive key : value pair. For example, you can define a tag with key : value pair Corporate Department : Sales and Marketing. You can create up to 10 tags.

Edits to your Firehose configuration may take up to 30 minutes to fully propogate.

Here is another paragraph of text to explain other things that need to be explained here.

The agent is Java software that provides an automated way to collect and emit data into Firehose from a data producer.

  1. Connect to your EC2 instance with a power user role Learn how to connect
  2. Download the Firehose agent to your EC2 instance 
    wget https://s3.amazonaws.com/firehoseinternalsdk/awsfh-agent-latest.zip
  3. Unzip the package you just downloaded 
    unzip awsfh-agent-latest.zip
  4. Install the agent 
    sudo ./install-firehose-agent
  5. Set write permissions on agent.json 
    sudo chmod a+w /etc/awsfh/agent.json
  6. Edit agent.json and set source directory and Firehose name 
    vim /etc/awsfh/agent.json
  7. Start the agent 
    sudo service awsfh-agent start

Having trouble? First, check that your resource's permissions and policies allow Firehose to communicate with it. If your permissions and policies are correct and you are still having trouble visit our troubleshooting guide.

A bucket is a container for objects stored in Amazon S3. When creating a bucket, you can choose a Region to optimize for latency, minimize costs, or address regulatory requirements. For more information regarding bucket naming conventions, please visit the Amazon S3 documentation.

Welcome to Firehose

Amazon Firehose helps you capture, batch, and deliver all your streaming data into S3, Redshift and other destinations. Once in the destination you can use any tool of your choice to analyze the data. For example with Firehose you can:

  1. Aggregate all clickstream data from your web frontends
  2. Capture all mobile app data from smartphones
  3. Deliver all log data from your IT infrastructure into S3

You don't have to write any code to capture and deliver data into your S3, Redshift, or other destination.

Submit data

Monitor your data delivery

Create and configure the Firehose to batch, compress, and encrypt your streaming data as it is delivered into S3, Redshift, and other destinations.

Install the agent or use APIs to automatically submit data from data producers such log servers, smartphone apps, network routers into Firehose

Monitor the metrics for data flowing through Firehose into your S3, Redshift, or other destination per the defined configuration.

Welcome to Amazon Kinesis

Amazon Kinesis is a managed service that scales elastically for real-time processing of streaming big data. Amazon Kinesis takes in large streams of data records that can then be consumed in real time by multiple data-processing applications running on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instances.

To start using Amazon Kinesis, create a data stream. Please note that Amazon Kinesis is not currently available in AWS Free Tier. Shard Hour charges will begin once you create your Amazon Kinesis stream and will continue until the stream is deleted. For details about Amazon Kinesis pricing, see Amazon Kinesis Pricing.

Write data to the stream

Consume data from the stream

Data streams consist of shards. Estimate the number of shards that you will need based on the amount of data written to and read from the stream.

Data from many producers can be written to the stream for scalable and reliable intake.

Multiple data-processing applications consume from the stream to produce real-time insights.

Create Firehose

  • Step 1: Choose Destination
  • Step 2: Configure Firehose
  • Step 3: Add Tags
  • Step 4: Review

Choose Destination

Choose a destination for Firehose to store your streaming data.

Firehose Destination

Firehose to S3

Firehose Name
The Firehose name that you have entered does not meet Firehose name guidelines. Learn more about Firehose names.
S3 Destination Bucket
S3 Prefix
IAM Role

Firehose needs an IAM security role to access the AWS resources it needs. If you don't have an applicable role already, one can be auto-created for you. Learn more about Firehose IAM roles.

Firehose to Redshift

Creating a Firehose to Redshift is not currently supported in the prototype. Create a Firehose to S3 instead!

Configure Firehose

Data put into Firehose will be batched, encrypted and delivered into the destination using the configuration options you have selected.

Batching

Choose how you want your data batched. You can choose to specify a batch size in MB or a batch interval in seconds. If both are specified, the condition that is met first is how data will be batched. Learn More

Batch Size (MB)
Batch Interval (s)

Compression and encryption

Compression and encryption will be applied after data has been batched.

Add Tags

You can add tags to describe your Firehose. A tag consists of a case-sensitive key : value pair. For example, you can define a tag with key : value pair Corporate Department : Sales and Marketing. You can create up to 10 tags.
