## Analyze real-time data streaming from your AWS

### Streaming integration

Create a streaming pipeline between AWS Kinesis services and Sumo Logic, pulling valuable real-time data into the Sumo cloud-native platform.

### Powerful visualization

The Sumo Logic AWS Kinesis connector ingests raw data streams and transforms them into Sumo’s unmatched visual reports.

### Scalable flexibility

Aggregate, analyze, and visualize your specified Kinesis log data using the Sumo Logic’s connector.

## What is AWS Kinesis?

Amazon Kinesis is a powerful piece of infrastructure offered by AWS in order to help users build applications capable of robustly processing large-scale real-time event data streams. Its high-throughput enables app developers to access large quantities of logs and other data from a multitude of source.

Sumo Logic’s app allows you to connect these [AWS Kinesis](https://aws.amazon.com/kinesis/) data streams to the Sumo Logic platform’s powerful tools for log monitoring, analysis, and management.

Sumo Logic particularly well-suited to Amazon Kinesis log processing. It is quite easy to configure Amazon Kinesis to ingest logs from a variety of sources, including:

- Custom application logs via the [Log4J Appender](https://github.com/awslabs/kinesis-log4j-appender)
- AWS CloudWatch Logs [via subscription](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudWatch/latest/DeveloperGuide/Subscriptions.html#DestinationKinesisExample)
- Other log event data via [Erlang OTP application](https://github.com/AdRoll/kinetic)

## Real-Time Monitoring and Auditing for AWS Kinesis Logs

Sumo Logic’s AWS Kinesis Connector app establishes a secure tunnel for your AWS streams, filtering them into Sumo’s unique, robust visual reporting tools, allowing you an in-depth understanding of your AWS Kinesis data.

Inspect AWS streams like [CloudTrail](https://aws.amazon.com/cloudtrail/) logs to search for root cause analysis of a particular anomaly, or ingest the entire logs for powerful visual insights into your data streams

Unleash the full potential of AWS Kinesis and add real-time monitoring to your management toolbox.
