如何将DynamoDB流连接到运动流？

Question

I was assuming I

• create a table and enable stream and I now have an ARN
• create a kinesis stream
• configure somewhere to tell the dynamoDb stream to write to kinesis stream

I was looking at working with https://github.com/harlow/kinesis-consumer but this reads from kinesis or can I use the ARN and use it to read right from the dynamoDB stream?

The more I look, the more I seem to think, I have to write a lambda to read dynamoDB and write to kinesis. Is that correct?

thanks

Hey can you provide a bit more of information about your target setup? do you plan to have some sort of ETL process for your dynamoDB table? AFAIK when you bound a kinesis stream to a dynamodb table, everytime you add, remove or update rows on the dynamodb a new event will be publish in the associated kinesis stream which you can consume from and use the event in whatever way you want.

maybe worth checking this one: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/Streams.KCLAdapter.Walkthrough.html
