Description

At the moment, the schema is distributed across a few commands and files:

  • input-schema.json: this is the JSON format required by the CreateApplication API (it can be automated by putting a few records and running the discovery feature)
  • query.sql: this is the Kinesis Analytics Application query that actually implements the fan-out (input/output structure must be known)
  • putRecords.js: this command writes N records into the input stream (for discovery and testing)

Contributor guide

Research direction
Analyze the current schema files (input schema.json, query.sql, putRecords.js) and design a single schema definition that can be referenced by all components. Extract the schema into a separate JSON or JS module and update the code to import it.
