Kinesis with Zombies

We are Capside

• And we are kinda nice

Introduction

• Here are the main slides

Devel credentials

• Generate new credentials with at least access to Kinesis, Cloudwatch and DynamoDB
• Set the permissions as environment variables, in Windows:

SET AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<your access key>
SET AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<your secret key>
SET AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=us-west-2

• On Mac/Linux:

export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<your access key>
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<your secret key>
export AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=us-west-2

Using the cli to create and check the Kinesis stream

aws dynamodb delete-table --table-name Zombies
aws kinesis delete-stream --stream-name zombies
aws kinesis create-stream --stream-name zombies --shard-count 2
aws kinesis describe-stream --stream-name zombies
aws kinesis describe-stream --stream-name zombies --query StreamDescription.StreamStatus
aws kinesis get-shard-iterator --stream-name zombies --shard-id shardId-000000000000 --shard-iterator-type TRIM_HORIZON --query ShardIterator
aws kinesis get-records --shard-iterator "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

Creating the stream using the console

• Be sure to remember the region you are going to use
• Set 'zombies' as the stream name and ask for a capacity of 2 shards

Getting the source code

• If you are going to use an IDE download and install Lombok
• Visit the github project
• Either download it as a zip or clone the repo with git clone https://github.com/capside/aws-kinesis-zombies
• Build both projects with your IDE or using Maven

cd aws-kinesis-zombies/ZombieProducer
mvn package
cd ZombieConsumer
mvn package 

Getting the binaries

• Use them if you don't want to take a look at the code
• Download them from the project releases

Gotchas

• Remember to delete both the Kinesis Stream and the DynamoDB table
• Kinesis is key sensitive with the name of the streams
• The KCL uses DynamoDB to keep track of the stream. Create alerts to monitor the corresponding table.

Running the producer and the consumer

The next scripts will start the projects allowing you to attach an external debugger to the session. Run them on the folders in which the jar binaries are located. DISCLAIMER: for optimum performance, of course, run at least the consumer on EC2 instances.

java -Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=1044 ^
     -jar ZombieProducer-0.0.2-SNAPSHOT.jar ^
     --drone=5555 --stream=zombies --region=us-west-2 --latitude=51.509865 --longitude=-0.118092

java -Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=1045 ^
     -jar ZombieConsumer-0.0.2-SNAPSHOT.jar ^
     --stream=zombies --region=us-west-2

After launching both programs you can access the visualization using http://localhost:8080. And for additional fun:
