Comment on Amazon Kinesis

Comments

I'm really excited about this - data streaming has been a crucial missing piece for building large-scale apps on AWS.

If the performance and pricing are right it's going to relieve a lot of headaches in terms of infrastructure management.

Forgive my ignorance, but what would this potentially replace? Kafka/Storm/Something else?

Yep, Amazon's version of Kafka/Storm with pay as you go minus the headaches of maintaining the cluster.

Sounds about right.
