Amazon Kinesis Data Streams is a service that can capture, store, and process streaming data in real time. Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose is a service that can deliver streaming data to various destinations, such as Amazon S3, Amazon Redshift, or Amazon Elasticsearch Service. Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose can also transform the data before delivering it, such as converting the data format, compressing the data, or encrypting the data. One of the supported data formats that Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose can convert to is Apache Parquet, which is a columnar storage format that can improve the performance and cost-efficiency of analytics queries. By using Amazon Kinesis Data Streams and Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose, the Mobile Network Operator can ingest the .CSV data from the source systems and use Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose to convert the data into Parquet before storing it on Amazon S3. This solution takes the least effort to implement, as it does not require any additional resources, such as Amazon EC2 instances, Amazon EMR clusters, or Amazon Glue jobs. The solution can also leverage the built-in features of Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose, such as data buffering, batching, retry, and error handling.
