The purpose of this presentation is to show you how to route these events to an AWS Lambda function (which could be also responsible for initialization or cleanup tasks). Then, the function will push events to Kinesis Firehose for storage in Amazon S3, where they will be processed by a Spark Streaming job running in Amazon EMR. Who knows, this might give you some ideas to build a new real-time monitoring and alerting system.
