In this lab, you will create a secure data streaming pipeline using Amazon Kinesis services. You will set up a complete data flow from data ingestion to storage, ensuring data security through encryption. The lab focuses on integrating AWS KMS for encryption and applying proper IAM policies to manage access. This hands-on experience will help reinforce your knowledge of data security in streaming architectures.
Imagine you are a data engineer at a media company that provides real-time video analytics. With growing concerns about data security, your task is to design a streaming solution that ensures all analytics data is encrypted in transit and at rest. The company requires that only specific roles have access to the streaming data for processing and analysis.
