Writes multiple data records into a delivery stream in a single call,
which can achieve higher throughput per producer than when writing
single records. To write single data records into a delivery stream, use
put_record
. Applications using these operations
are referred to as producers.
For information about service quota, see Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose Quota.
Each put_record_batch
request supports up
to 500 records. Each record in the request can be as large as 1,000 KB
(before 64-bit encoding), up to a limit of 4 MB for the entire request.
These limits cannot be changed.
You must specify the name of the delivery stream and the data record
when using put_record
. The data record consists
of a data blob that can be up to 1,000 KB in size, and any kind of data.
For example, it could be a segment from a log file, geographic location
data, website clickstream data, and so on.
Kinesis Data Firehose buffers records before delivering them to the
destination. To disambiguate the data blobs at the destination, a common
solution is to use delimiters in the data, such as a newline (\n
) or
some other character unique within the data. This allows the consumer
application to parse individual data items when reading the data from
the destination.
The put_record_batch
response includes a
count of failed records, FailedPutCount
, and an array of responses,
RequestResponses
. Even if the
put_record_batch
call succeeds, the value
of FailedPutCount
may be greater than 0, indicating that there are
records for which the operation didn't succeed. Each entry in the
RequestResponses
array provides additional information about the
processed record. It directly correlates with a record in the request
array using the same ordering, from the top to the bottom. The response
array always includes the same number of records as the request array.
RequestResponses
includes both successfully and unsuccessfully
processed records. Kinesis Data Firehose tries to process all records in
each put_record_batch
request. A single
record failure does not stop the processing of subsequent records.
A successfully processed record includes a RecordId
value, which is
unique for the record. An unsuccessfully processed record includes
ErrorCode
and ErrorMessage
values. ErrorCode
reflects the type of
error, and is one of the following values: ServiceUnavailableException
or InternalFailure
. ErrorMessage
provides more detailed information
about the error.
If there is an internal server error or a timeout, the write might have
completed or it might have failed. If FailedPutCount
is greater than
0, retry the request, resending only those records that might have
failed processing. This minimizes the possible duplicate records and
also reduces the total bytes sent (and corresponding charges). We
recommend that you handle any duplicates at the destination.
If put_record_batch
throws
ServiceUnavailableException
, back off and retry. If the exception
persists, it is possible that the throughput limits have been exceeded
for the delivery stream.
Data records sent to Kinesis Data Firehose are stored for 24 hours from the time they are added to a delivery stream as it attempts to send the records to the destination. If the destination is unreachable for more than 24 hours, the data is no longer available.
Don't concatenate two or more base64 strings to form the data fields of your records. Instead, concatenate the raw data, then perform base64 encoding.
