Use a Kinesis target to receive data from a source and write the data to an Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose target. To create a Kinesis target, use the Amazon Kinesis connection type.
Kinesis Firehose is a real-time data stream processing service that Amazon Kinesis offers within the AWS ecosystem. Use Kinesis Firehose to batch, encrypt, and compress data. Kinesis Firehose can automatically scale to meet system needs.
To configure access for Kinesis Firehose as a target, perform the following tasks:
Create an AWS account with the required IAM permissions for the IAM user to use the AWS Kinesis Data Firehose service.
Define a Firehose delivery stream. Configure source as Direct PUT or other sources.
Grant required permissions to the IAM user credentials based on the target the user is writing to.
