What's this blog post about?

The blog discusses the integration of Amazon DynamoDB with Confluent's data streaming platform to build event-driven architectures for real-time insights and decision-making. It explores a fourth option for capturing and transferring data changes from DynamoDB to Confluent: Confluent Cloud’s source connector for Amazon DynamoDB Change Data Capture (CDC). This fully managed service simplifies the process of capturing and transferring data changes, reduces operational complexity, and provides seamless integration. The source connector supports no-code integration with Confluent, cost-effective streaming with multi-table support, multiple usage modes, enhanced developer productivity, custom offset support, IAM AssumeRole support, and more. An example use case of the connector is provided along with steps to set up the source connector in a Confluent Cloud environment. The integration offers various advantages such as hydrating data lakes, facilitating real-time data processing, expanding the range of data sources, and broadening potential destinations for data. This feature is available across all major clouds.
