AWS Kinesis
Since Camel 3.2
Both producer and consumer are supported
The AWS2 Kinesis component supports receiving messages from and sending messages to Amazon Kinesis (no Batch supported) service.
Prerequisites
You must have a valid Amazon Web Services developer account, and be signed up to use Amazon Kinesis. More information are available at AWS Kinesis
|
The AWS2 Kinesis component is not supported in OSGI |
URI Format
aws2-kinesis://stream-name[?options]The stream needs to be created prior to it being used.
You can append query options to the URI in the following format,
?options=value&option2=value&…
URI Options
The AWS Kinesis component supports 21 options, which are listed below.
| Name | Description | Default | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
amazonKinesisClient (common) |
Autowired Amazon Kinesis client to use for all requests for this endpoint |
KinesisClient |
|
cborEnabled (common) |
This option will set the CBOR_ENABLED property during the execution |
true |
boolean |
configuration (common) |
Component configuration |
Kinesis2Configuration |
|
overrideEndpoint (common) |
Set the need for overidding the endpoint. This option needs to be used in combination with uriEndpointOverride option |
false |
boolean |

To define a proxy host when instantiating the Kinesis client |
String |
|
proxyPort (common) |
To define a proxy port when instantiating the Kinesis client |
Integer |
|
proxyProtocol (common) |
To define a proxy protocol when instantiating the Kinesis client. There are 2 enums and the value can be one of: HTTP, HTTPS |
HTTPS |
Protocol |
region (common) |
The region in which Kinesis Firehose client needs to work. When using this parameter, the configuration will expect the lowercase name of the region (for example ap-east-1) You’ll need to use the name Region.EU_WEST_1.id() |
String |
|
trustAllCertificates (common) |
If we want to trust all certificates in case of overriding the endpoint |
false |
boolean |
uriEndpointOverride (common) |
Set the overriding uri endpoint. This option needs to be used in combination with overrideEndpoint option |
String |
|
useDefaultCredentialsProvider (common) |
Set whether the Kinesis client should expect to load credentials through a default credentials provider or to expect static credentials to be passed in. |
false |
boolean |
bridgeErrorHandler (consumer) |
Allows for bridging the consumer to the Camel routing Error Handler, which mean any exceptions occurred while the consumer is trying to pickup incoming messages, or the likes, will now be processed as a message and handled by the routing Error Handler. By default the consumer will use the org.apache.camel.spi.ExceptionHandler to deal with exceptions, that will be logged at WARN or ERROR level and ignored. |
false |
boolean |
iteratorType (consumer) |
Defines where in the Kinesis stream to start getting records. There are 6 enums and the value can be one of: AT_SEQUENCE_NUMBER, AFTER_SEQUENCE_NUMBER, TRIM_HORIZON, LATEST, AT_TIMESTAMP, null |
TRIM_HORIZON |
ShardIteratorType |
maxResultsPerRequest (consumer) |

There are 3 enums and the value can be one of: ignore, fail, silent |
ignore |
Kinesis2ShardClosedStrategyEnum |
shardId (consumer) |

lazyStartProducer (producer) |
Whether the producer should be started lazy (on the first message). By starting lazy you can use this to allow CamelContext and routes to startup in situations where a producer may otherwise fail during starting and cause the route to fail being started. By deferring this startup to be lazy then the startup failure can be handled during routing messages via Camel’s routing error handlers. Beware that when the first message is processed then creating and starting the producer may take a little time and prolong the total processing time of the processing. |
false |
boolean |
autowiredEnabled (advanced) |

This is used for automatic autowiring options (the option must be marked as autowired) by looking up in the registry to find if there is a single instance of matching type, which then gets configured on the component.

Required Kinesis component options
You have to provide the KinesisClient in the Registry with proxies and relevant credentials configured.
Batch Consumer
This component implements the Batch Consumer.
This allows you for instance to know how many messages exists in this batch and for instance let the Aggregator aggregate this number of messages.
Usage
Static credentials vs Default Credential Provider
You have the possibility of avoiding the usage of explicit static credentials, by specifying the useDefaultCredentialsProvider option and set it to true.
-
Java system properties - aws.accessKeyId and aws.secretKey
-
Environment variables - AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY.
-
Web Identity Token from AWS STS.
-
The shared credentials and config files.
-
Amazon ECS container credentials - loaded from the Amazon ECS if the environment variable AWS_CONTAINER_CREDENTIALS_RELATIVE_URI is set.
-
Amazon EC2 Instance profile credentials.
For more information about this you can look at AWS credentials documentation
Message headers set by the Kinesis consumer
| Header | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
|
|
The sequence number of the record. This is represented as a String as it size is not defined by the API. If it is to be used as a numerical type then use |
|
|
The time AWS assigned as the arrival time of the record. |
|
|
Identifies which shard in the stream the data record is assigned to. |
AmazonKinesis configuration
You then have to reference the KinesisClient in the amazonKinesisClient URI option.
from("aws2-kinesis://mykinesisstream?amazonKinesisClient=#kinesisClient")
.to("log:out?showAll=true");Providing AWS Credentials
It is recommended that the credentials are obtained by using the DefaultAWSCredentialsProviderChain that is the default when creating a new ClientConfiguration instance, however, a different AWSCredentialsProvider can be specified when calling createClient(…).
Message headers used by the Kinesis producer to write to Kinesis. The producer expects that the message body is a byte[].
| Header | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
|
|
The PartitionKey to pass to Kinesis to store this record. |
|
|
Optional paramter to indicate the sequence number of this record. |
Message headers set by the Kinesis producer on successful storage of a Record
| Header | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
|
|
The sequence number of the record, as defined in Response Syntax |
|
|
The shard ID of where the Record was stored |
