Using Amazon Lambda with Amazon Data Firehose

Amazon Data Firehose captures, transforms, and loads streaming data into downstream services such as Managed Service for Apache Flink or Amazon S3. You can write Lambda functions to request additional, customized processing of the data before it is sent downstream.

Example Amazon Data Firehose message event
