Kinesis service controller

New ACK Service Controller

Support for Amazon Kinesis

List of API resources

List the API resources in order of importance to you:

1. Stream

Keep in mind that ACK only handles control plane operations, not data plane operations, so Kinesis API operations like SubscribeToStream, DeregisterStreamConsumer, PutRecord and PutRecords are not going to be supported.

Some Kinesis API operations that are going to be problematic:

• IncreaseStreamRetentionPeriod
• DecreaseStreamRetentionPeriod
• EnableEnhancedMonitoring
• DisableEnhancedMonitoring
• StartStreamEncryption
• StopStreamEncryption
• UpdateShardCount

Because they represent mutating operations on just a single attribute of a stream and there isn't a ModifyStream or UpdateStream API call, which means we're going to need to inform the code generator in ACK what all those API operations actually do...

• MergeShards
• ListStreamConsumers

Neither of these is congruent with the Kubernetes API and declarative modeling.

So, at least initially, it's only going to be CreateStream and DeleteStream and then followed by the "single attribute mutating operations".

Thanks @jaypipes pointed out operational focus. Just want to confirm will embed inform code into generator to handle these kind of service or not determine yet?

[jaypipes]

@cc4i we will be enhancing the code generator in ACK to account for these kinds of odd API calls, yes. Already starting to do that with the Elasticache and RDS ACK service controllers, since both of those APIs have a lot of rough edges like this :)

@cc4i and all other watchers: you can install and use the Kinesis controller for ACK now.

You can install it using the kinesis-chart Helm chart.

Feedback and criticism very much welcomed!
