Network.AWS.Kinesis.PutRecord

Contents

Description

Writes a single data record from a producer into an Amazon Kinesis stream. Call PutRecord to send data from the producer into the Amazon Kinesis stream for real-time ingestion and subsequent processing, one record at a time. Each shard can support writes up to 1,000 records per second, up to a maximum data write total of 1 MB per second.

You must specify the name of the stream that captures, stores, and transports the data; a partition key; and the data blob itself.

The data blob can be any type of data; for example, a segment from a log file, geographic/location data, website clickstream data, and so on.

The partition key is used by Amazon Kinesis to distribute data across shards. Amazon Kinesis segregates the data records that belong to a data stream into multiple shards, using the partition key associated with each data record to determine which shard a given data record belongs to.

Partition keys are Unicode strings, with a maximum length limit of 256 characters for each key. An MD5 hash function is used to map partition keys to 128-bit integer values and to map associated data records to shards using the hash key ranges of the shards. You can override hashing the partition key to determine the shard by explicitly specifying a hash value using the ExplicitHashKey parameter. For more information, see Adding Data to a Stream in the Amazon Kinesis Developer Guide.

PutRecord returns the shard ID of where the data record was placed and the sequence number that was assigned to the data record.

Sequence numbers generally increase over time. To guarantee strictly increasing ordering, use the SequenceNumberForOrdering parameter. For more information, see Adding Data to a Stream in the Amazon Kinesis Developer Guide.

If a PutRecord request cannot be processed because of insufficient provisioned throughput on the shard involved in the request, PutRecord throws ProvisionedThroughputExceededException.

By default, data records are accessible for only 24 hours from the time that they are added to an Amazon Kinesis stream. This retention period can be modified using the DecreaseStreamRetentionPeriod and IncreaseStreamRetentionPeriod operations.

See: AWS API Reference for PutRecord.

Synopsis

Creating a Request

putRecord Source

Creates a value of PutRecord with the minimum fields required to make a request.

Use one of the following lenses to modify other fields as desired:

Request Lenses

prExplicitHashKey :: Lens' PutRecord (Maybe Text) Source

The hash value used to explicitly determine the shard the data record is assigned to by overriding the partition key hash.

prSequenceNumberForOrdering :: Lens' PutRecord (Maybe Text) Source

Guarantees strictly increasing sequence numbers, for puts from the same client and to the same partition key. Usage: set the SequenceNumberForOrdering of record n to the sequence number of record n-1 (as returned in the result when putting record n-1). If this parameter is not set, records will be coarsely ordered based on arrival time.

prStreamName :: Lens' PutRecord Text Source

The name of the stream to put the data record into.

prData :: Lens' PutRecord ByteString Source

The data blob to put into the record, which is base64-encoded when the blob is serialized. When the data blob (the payload before base64-encoding) is added to the partition key size, the total size must not exceed the maximum record size (1 MB).

Note: This Lens automatically encodes and decodes Base64 data, despite what the AWS documentation might say. The underlying isomorphism will encode to Base64 representation during serialisation, and decode from Base64 representation during deserialisation. This Lens accepts and returns only raw unencoded data.

prPartitionKey :: Lens' PutRecord Text Source

Determines which shard in the stream the data record is assigned to. Partition keys are Unicode strings with a maximum length limit of 256 characters for each key. Amazon Kinesis uses the partition key as input to a hash function that maps the partition key and associated data to a specific shard. Specifically, an MD5 hash function is used to map partition keys to 128-bit integer values and to map associated data records to shards. As a result of this hashing mechanism, all data records with the same partition key will map to the same shard within the stream.

Destructuring the Response

putRecordResponse Source

Creates a value of PutRecordResponse with the minimum fields required to make a request.

Use one of the following lenses to modify other fields as desired:

Response Lenses

prrsShardId :: Lens' PutRecordResponse Text Source

The shard ID of the shard where the data record was placed.

prrsSequenceNumber :: Lens' PutRecordResponse Text Source

The sequence number identifier that was assigned to the put data record. The sequence number for the record is unique across all records in the stream. A sequence number is the identifier associated with every record put into the stream.
