Amazon EMR clusters can read and process Kinesis streams directly, using familiar tools in the Hadoop ecosystem such as Hive, Pig, MapReduce, the Hadoop Streaming API, and Cascading. You can also join real-time data from Kinesis Data Streams with existing data on Amazon S3, Amazon DynamoDB, and HDFS in a running cluster. You can directly load the data from Amazon EMR to Amazon S3 or DynamoDB for post-processing activities.
For more information, see Amazon Kinesis in the Amazon EMR Release Guide.
