Building bike ride analytic applications

Let's put the described SwipeBike and KDA into action. As a first step, we will simulate bike trips; bikes being rented and returned. We have provided code that will do this for you. We will then build analytics applications using KDA SQL and KDA Flink. These applications will functionally be the same and will analyze the data for bike trips.

Setting up a producer application

If you haven't installed prerequisites, please go to the Technical requirements section of this chapter and install the prerequisites. Using AWS Cloud Deployment Toolkit (CDK), we will create the infrastructure required, including deploying the producer application that we will use in this chapter. If you haven't done so already, go ahead and pull down the required CDK code from the GitHub repository:

git clone https://github.com/tmakota/kinesis-book.git
