A company is building an application that is going to make use of Kinesis streams. They are going to develop the producer and consumer parts of the application. There is a requirement to ensure the strict ordering of records send and processed in the stream. Which of the following would help ensure this? Choose 2 answers from the options given below

Answer options:

A.Ensure to use the PutRecord API command
B.Ensure to use the PutRecords API command
C.Ensure that records are directed towards a particular shard.
D.Ensure that records are split across various streams

Answer – A and C
The AWS Documentation mentions the following
The response Records array includes both successfully and unsuccessfully processed records. Kinesis Data Streams attempts to process all records in each PutRecords request. A single record failure does not stop the processing of subsequent records. As a result, PutRecords doesn`t guarantee the ordering of records. If you need to read records in the same order they are written to the stream, use PutRecord instead of PutRecords, and write to the same shard.
