Changelog

Release 1.9.0 (February 6, 2018)

  • Introducing support for ListShards API. This API is used in place of DescribeStream API to provide more throughput during ShardSyncTask. Please consult the AWS Documentation for ListShards for more information.

    • ListShards supports higher call rate, which should reduce instances of throttling when attempting to synchronize the shard list.
    • WARNING: ListShards is a new API, and may require updating any explicit IAM policies
    • Added configuration parameters for ListShards usage
    Name Default Description
    listShardsBackoffTimeInMillis 1500 ms This is the default backoff time between 2 ListShards calls when throttled.
    listShardsRetryAttempts 50 This is the maximum number of times the KinesisProxy will retry to make ListShards calls on being throttled.

  • Updating the version of AWS Java SDK to 1.11.272.

    • Version 1.11.272 is now the minimum support version of the SDK.

  • Deprecating the following methods, and classes. These methods, and classes will be removed in a future release.

Release 1.8.10

  • Allow providing a custom IKinesisProxy implementation.
  • Checkpointing on a different thread should no longer emit a warning about NullMetricsScope.
  • Upgraded the AWS Java SDK to version 1.11.271

Release 1.8.9

  • Allow disabling check for the case where a child shard has an open parent shard.
    There is a race condition where it's possible for the a parent shard to appear open, while having child shards. This check can now be disabled by setting ignoreUnexpectedChildShards to true.
  • Upgraded the AWS SDK for Java to 1.11.261

Release 1.8.8

  • Fixed issues with leases losses due to ExpiredIteratorException in PrefetchGetRecordsCache and AsynchronousFetchingStrategy.
    PrefetchGetRecordsCache will request for a new iterator and start fetching data again.

  • Added warning message for long running tasks.
    Logging long running tasks can be enabled by setting the following configuration property:

    Name Default Description
    logWarningForTaskAfterMillis Not set Milliseconds after which the logger will log a warning message for the long running task

  • Handling spurious lease renewal failures gracefully.
    Added better handling of DynamoDB failures when updating leases. These failures would occur when a request to DynamoDB appeared to fail, but was actually successful.

  • ShutdownTask gets retried if the previous attempt on the ShutdownTask fails.

  • Fix for using maxRecords from KinesisClientLibConfiguration in GetRecordsCache for fetching records.

Release 1.8.7

  • Don't add a delay for synchronous requests to Kinesis
    Removes a delay that had been added for synchronous GetRecords calls to Kinesis.

Release 1.8.6

  • Add prefetching of records from Kinesis
    Prefetching will retrieve and queue additional records from Kinesis while the application is processing existing records.
    Prefetching can be enabled by setting dataFetchingStrategy to PREFETCH_CACHED. Once enabled an additional fetching thread will be started to retrieve records from Kinesis. Retrieved records will be held in a queue until the application is ready to process them.
    Pre-fetching supports the following configuration values:

    Name Default Description
    dataFetchingStrategy DEFAULT Which data fetching strategy to use
    maxPendingProcessRecordsInput 3 The maximum number of process records input that can be queued
    maxCacheByteSize 8 MiB The maximum number of bytes that can be queued
    maxRecordsCount 30,000 The maximum number of records that can be queued
    idleMillisBetweenCalls 1,500 ms The amount of time to wait between calls to Kinesis

Release 1.8.5 (September 26, 2017)

  • Only advance the shard iterator for the accepted response.
    This fixes a race condition in the KinesisDataFetcher when it's being used to make asynchronous requests. The shard iterator is now only advanced when the retriever calls DataFetcherResult#accept().

Release 1.8.4 (September 22, 2017)

  • Create a new completion service for each request.
    This ensures that canceled tasks are discarded. This will prevent a cancellation exception causing issues processing records.

Release 1.8.3 (September 22, 2017)

Release 1.8.2 (September 20, 2017)

  • Add support for two phase checkpoints
    Applications can now set a pending checkpoint, before completing the checkpoint operation. Once the application has completed its checkpoint steps, the final checkpoint will clear the pending checkpoint.
    Should the checkpoint fail the attempted sequence number is provided in the InitializationInput#getPendingCheckpointSequenceNumber otherwise the value will be null.
  • Support timeouts, and retry for GetRecords calls.
    Applications can now set timeouts for GetRecord calls to Kinesis. As part of setting the timeout, the application must also provide a thread pool size for concurrent requests.
  • Notification when the lease table is throttled
    When writes, or reads, to the lease table are throttled a warning will be emitted. If you're seeing this warning you should increase the IOPs for your lease table to prevent processing delays.
  • Support configuring the graceful shutdown timeout for MultiLang Clients
    This adds support for setting the timeout that the Java process will wait for the MutliLang client to complete graceful shutdown. The timeout can be configured by adding shutdownGraceMillis to the properties file set to the number of milliseconds to wait.

Release 1.8.1 (August 2, 2017)

  • Support timeouts for calls to the MultiLang Daemon This adds support for setting a timeout when dispatching records to the client record processor. If the record processor doesn't respond within the timeout the parent Java process will be terminated. This is a temporary fix to handle cases where the KCL becomes blocked while waiting for a client record processor. The timeout for the this can be set by adding timeoutInSeconds = <timeout value>. The default for this is no timeout.
    Setting this can cause the KCL to exit suddenly, before using this ensure that you have an automated restart for your application

Release 1.8.0 (July 25, 2017)

  • Execute graceful shutdown on its own thread
  • Added support for controlling the size of the lease renewer thread pool

  • MultiLangDaemon Feature Updates The MultiLangDaemon has been upgraded to use the v2 interfaces, which allows access to enhanced checkpointing, and more information during record processor initialization. The MultiLangDaemon clients must be updated before they can take advantage of these new features.

Release 1.7.1 (November 3, 2016)

  • General
    • Allow disabling shard synchronization at startup.
      • Applications can disable shard synchronization at startup. Disabling shard synchronization can application startup times for very large streams.
      • PR #102
    • Applications can now request a graceful shutdown, and record processors that implement the IShutdownNotificationAware will be given a chance to checkpoint before being shutdown.

Release 1.7.0 (August 22, 2016)

  • Remove direct dependency on aws-java-sdk-core, to allow independent versioning.
    • PR #92 You may need to add a direct dependency on aws-java-sdk-core if other dependencies include an older version.
