pip install boto3N/A — Java-based Kafka connectorpip install boto3N/A — Java-based Kafka connectorPython data engineers use `boto3`'s Kinesis client to put records onto a Data Stream from Lambda functions or EC2-based producers. Consumer applications use the Kinesis Client Library (KCL) with Python bindings, or the `amazon-kinesis-client` Python wrapper, to process shards in parallel with automatic checkpointing — a common pattern for real-time log processing and event enrichment.
Python data engineers typically run Debezium as the CDC producer and write Python consumers of the change streams it generates. After deploying Debezium connectors via Docker Compose or Kubernetes, Python services consume CDC events from Kafka topics using confluent-kafka or kafka-python — receiving full before/after row images for every database change, which are then written as Parquet to S3 or applied as upserts to a data warehouse. For teams without Kafka, Debezium Server sinks directly to AWS Kinesis or Redis Streams, both of which have first-class Python client libraries (boto3, redis-py), keeping the Python integration straightforward.
