Use AMS SSP to provision Amazon Data Firehose in your AMS account

Use AMS Self-Service Provisioning (SSP) mode to access Amazon Data Firehose capabilities directly in your AMS managed account. Firehose is the easiest way to reliably load streaming data into data lakes, data stores, and analytics tools. It can capture, transform, and load streaming data into Amazon S3, Amazon Redshift, Amazon OpenSearch Service, and Splunk, enabling near real-time analytics with existing business intelligence tools and dashboards you’re already using today. It is a fully managed service that automatically scales to match the throughput of your data and requires no ongoing administration. It can also batch, compress, transform, and encrypt the data before loading it, minimizing the amount of storage used at the destination and increasing security.

Firehose in AWS Managed Services FAQs

Common questions and answers:

Q: How do I request access to Amazon Data Firehose in my AMS account?

Request access by submitting a Management | AWS service | Self-provisioned service | Add (review required) (ct-3qe6io8t6jtny) change type. This RFC provisions the following IAM role to your account: customer_kinesis_firehose_user_role. After it's provisioned in your account, you must onboard the role in your federation solution.

Q: What are the restrictions to using Firehose in my AMS account?

There are no restrictions. Full functionality of Amazon Data Firehose is available in your AMS account.

Q: What are the prerequisites or dependencies to using Firehose in my AMS account?

New service-linked IAM roles must be requested for each delivery stream. You can also re-use a single service-linked role for all streams by updating the role policy with the required resource permissions (including S3 buckets/ KMS Keys / Lambda Functions / Kinesis streams).

After you have submitted the RFC to add Firehose, an AMS Operations engineer will reach out to you through a Service Request for the ARNs of resources that you would like to connect with Data Firehose (for example, AWS KMS, S3, Lambda, and Kinesis Streams).
