Creating a stream in the AWS CLI

To create a stream, run the command:

aws kinesis create-stream \
  --endpoint <endpoint> \
  --stream-name <stream_ID> \
  --shard-count <number_of_shards>

• --endpoint: Specify the https://yds.serverless.yandexcloud.net endpoint to create a stream that will receive data over the AWS Kinesis Data Streams protocol.

• --stream-name: Consists of the availability zone, folder ID, Yandex Managed Service for YDB database ID, and stream name.

  For example, your stream ID will appear as /ru-central1/aoeu1kuk2dht********/cc8029jgtuab********/aws_stream if:

  • aws_stream: Stream name
  • ru-central1: Region
  • aoeu1kuk2dht********: Folder ID
  • cc8029jgtuab********: YDB database ID

• --shard-count: Number of stream shards

Command example:

aws kinesis create-stream \
  --endpoint https://yds.serverless.yandexcloud.net \
  --stream-name /ru-central1/aoeu1kuk2dht********/cc8029jgtuab********/aws_stream \
  --shard-count 1
