This blog post is for folks interested in learning how to use Golang and AWS Lambda to build a serverless solution. You will be using the aws-lambda-go library along with the AWS Go SDK v2 for an application that will process records from an Amazon Kinesis data stream and store them in a DynamoDB table. But that’s not all! You will also use Go bindings for AWS CDK to implement “Infrastructure-as-code” for the entire solution and deploy it with the AWS CDK CLI.

Introduction

Amazon Kinesis is a platform for real-time data processing, ingestion, and analysis. Kinesis Data Streams is a serverless streaming data service (part of the Kinesis streaming data platform, along with Kinesis Data Firehose, Kinesis Video Streams, and Kinesis Data Analytics) that enables developers to collect, process, and analyze large amounts of data in real-time from various sources such as social media, IoT devices, logs, and more. AWS Lambda, on the other hand, is a serverless compute service that allows developers to run their code without having to manage the underlying infrastructure.
