AWS: Java Post to Kinesis Queue

Posting to an AWS Kinesis Queue is rather simple and straight forward. As always you should refer to AWS Documentation.

Put Multiple Records On Queue

Import the following

import com.amazonaws.auth.AWSStaticCredentialsProvider;
import com.amazonaws.auth.BasicAWSCredentials;
import com.amazonaws.services.kinesis.AmazonKinesis;
import com.amazonaws.services.kinesis.AmazonKinesisClientBuilder;
import com.amazonaws.services.kinesis.model.PutRecordsRequest;
import com.amazonaws.services.kinesis.model.PutRecordsRequestEntry;
import com.amazonaws.services.kinesis.model.Record;

Put Records

AmazonKinesisClientBuilder clientBuilder = AmazonKinesisClientBuilder.standard().withRegion(myRegion).withCredentials(new AWSStaticCredentialsProvider(new BasicAWSCredentials(myAccessKeyId, mySecretKey)));
AmazonKinesis kinesisClient = clientBuilder.build();
PutRecordsRequest putRecordsRequest = new PutRecordsRequest();
putRecordsRequest.setStreamName(myQueue);
List putRecordsRequestEntryList  = new ArrayList<>(); 


//You can put multiple entries at once if you wanted to
PutRecordsRequestEntry putRecordsRequestEntry  = new PutRecordsRequestEntry();
putRecordsRequestEntry.setData(ByteBuffer.wrap(myData));
putRecordsRequestEntry.setPartitionKey(myKey);
putRecordsRequestEntryList.add(putRecordsRequestEntry);


putRecordsRequest.setRecords(putRecordsRequestEntryList);
PutRecordsResult putResult = kinesisClient.putRecords(putRecordsRequest);

Put Single Record On Queue

Import the following

import com.amazonaws.auth.AWSStaticCredentialsProvider;
import com.amazonaws.auth.BasicAWSCredentials;
import com.amazonaws.services.kinesis.AmazonKinesis;
import com.amazonaws.services.kinesis.AmazonKinesisClientBuilder;
import com.amazonaws.services.kinesis.model.PutRecordRequest;
import com.amazonaws.services.kinesis.model.Record;

Put Record

AmazonKinesisClientBuilder clientBuilder = AmazonKinesisClientBuilder.standard().withRegion(myRegion).withCredentials(new AWSStaticCredentialsProvider(new BasicAWSCredentials(myAccessKeyId, mySecretKey)));
AmazonKinesis kinesisClient = clientBuilder.build();
PutRecordRequest putRecordRequest = new PutRecordRequest();
putRecordRequest.setStreamName(myQueue);

putRecordRequest.setData(ByteBuffer.wrap(data.getBytes("UTF-8")));
putRecordRequest.setPartitionKey(myKey);

PutRecordResult putResult = kinesisClient.putRecord(putRecordRequest);

You now have put a record(s) onto the queue congratulations!
