Benefits

With Amazon Kinesis Data Streams, there are no servers to manage. The on-demand mode eliminates the need to provision or manage capacity required for running applications.
Adjust your capacity to stream gigabytes per second of data with Kinesis Data Streams. Get automatic provisioning and scaling with the on-demand mode.
Pay only for what you use with Kinesis Data Streams, starting as low as $0.015 per hour. With the on-demand mode, you don't need to worry about over-provisioning.
Use built-in integrations with other AWS services to create analytics, serverless, and application integration solutions on AWS quickly.
