Amazon Kinesis Data Streams

Amazon Kinesis Data Streams now supports Fault Injection Service (FIS) actions for Kinesis API errors. This allows customers to test their application's error handling capabilities, retry mechanisms, and CloudWatch alarms in a controlled environment.

What to do

  • Create experiment templates through the FIS console to run tests directly or integrate them into your continuous integration pipeline.
  • Utilize automatic stop mechanisms in FIS experiments to ensure controlled testing without risking application stability.

This feature is available in all AWS Regions where FIS is available, including the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions.
