Monitor Amazon Kinesis Firehose performance

Amazon Kinesis Firehose is a fully managed service that enables users to stream and capture data into various Amazon storage services such as Kinesis Analytics, S3, Redshift, and Elasticsearch Service. It can be considered a drop-in replacement for systems like Apache Kafka or RabbitMQ. Datadog's Firehose integration allows users to monitor and alert on Firehose performance metrics alongside metrics from storage backends and the rest of their infrastructure. The integration collects producer-level API metrics, backend-specific metrics, and supports automatic alerting for unexpected drops in throughput or changes in seasonal behavior.
