Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose Sink #

The Firehose sink writes to Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose.

Follow the instructions from the Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose Developer Guide to setup a Kinesis Data Firehose delivery stream.

To use the connector, add the following Maven dependency to your project:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.flink</groupId>
    <artifactId>flink-connector-aws-kinesis-firehose</artifactId>
    <version>1.20.0</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.flink</groupId>
    <artifactId>flink-connector-aws-kinesis-firehose</artifactId>
    <version>5.0.0-1.20</version>
</dependency>

为了在 PyFlink 作业中使用 ，需要添加下列依赖：

Version PyFlink JAR
flink-connector-aws-kinesis-firehose Download
在 PyFlink 中如何添加 JAR 包依赖请参考 Python 依赖管理。

The KinesisFirehoseSink uses AWS v2 SDK for Java to write data from a Flink stream into a Firehose delivery stream.

Configurations #

Flink’s Firehose sink is created by using the static builder KinesisFirehoseSink.<InputType>builder().

  1. setFirehoseClientProperties(Properties sinkProperties)
    • Required.
    • Supplies credentials, region and other parameters to the Firehose client.
  2. setSerializationSchema(SerializationSchema serializationSchema)
    • Required.
    • Supplies a serialization schema to the Sink. This schema is used to serialize elements before sending to Firehose.
  3. setDeliveryStreamName(String deliveryStreamName)
    • Required.
    • Name of the delivery stream to sink to.
  4. setFailOnError(boolean failOnError)
    • Optional. Default: false.
    • Whether failed requests to write records to Firehose are treated as fatal exceptions in the sink.
  5. setMaxBatchSize(int maxBatchSize)
    • Optional. Default: 500.
    • Maximum size of a batch to write to Firehose.
  6. setMaxInFlightRequests(int maxInFlightRequests)
    • Optional. Default: 50.
    • The maximum number of in flight requests allowed before the sink applies backpressure.
  7. setMaxBufferedRequests(int maxBufferedRequests)
    • Optional. Default: 10_000.
    • The maximum number of records that may be buffered in the sink before backpressure is applied.
  8. setMaxBatchSizeInBytes(int maxBatchSizeInBytes)
    • Optional. Default: 4 * 1024 * 1024.
    • The maximum size (in bytes) a batch may become. All batches sent will be smaller than or equal to this size.
  9. setMaxTimeInBufferMS(int maxTimeInBufferMS)
    • Optional. Default: 5000.
    • The maximum time a record may stay in the sink before being flushed.
  10. setMaxRecordSizeInBytes(int maxRecordSizeInBytes)
    • Optional. Default: 1000 * 1024.
    • The maximum record size that the sink will accept, records larger than this will be automatically rejected.
  11. build()
    • Constructs and returns the Firehose sink.

Using Custom Firehose Endpoints #

It is sometimes desirable to have Flink operate as a consumer or producer against a Firehose VPC endpoint or a non-AWS Firehose endpoint such as Localstack; this is especially useful when performing functional testing of a Flink application. The AWS endpoint that would normally be inferred by the AWS region set in the Flink configuration must be overridden via a configuration property.

To override the AWS endpoint, set the AWSConfigConstants.AWS_ENDPOINT and AWSConfigConstants.AWS_REGION properties. The region will be used to sign the endpoint URL.

Properties producerConfig = new Properties();
        producerConfig.put(AWSConfigConstants.AWS_REGION, "us-east-1");
        producerConfig.put(AWSConfigConstants.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, "aws_access_key_id");
        producerConfig.put(AWSConfigConstants.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, "aws_secret_access_key");
        producerConfig.put(AWSConfigConstants.AWS_ENDPOINT, "http://localhost:4566");

val producerConfig = new Properties()
producerConfig.put(AWSConfigConstants.AWS_REGION, "us-east-1")
producerConfig.put(AWSConfigConstants.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, "aws_access_key_id")
producerConfig.put(AWSConfigConstants.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, "aws_secret_access_key")
producerConfig.put(AWSConfigConstants.AWS_ENDPOINT, "http://localhost:4566")

producer_config = {
    'aws.region': 'us-east-1',
    'aws.credentials.provider.basic.accesskeyid': 'aws_access_key_id',
    'aws.credentials.provider.basic.secretkey': 'aws_secret_access_key',
    'aws.endpoint': 'http://localhost:4566'
}
