Prerequisites

Make sure you have the following ready so you can follow this guide:

1. Streamkap Account: You must have an active Streamkap account with admin or data admin rights. If you don't have one yet; sign up here

2. ClickHouse Account: Ensure you have an active ClickHouse account with admin privileges. If you don’t have one yet, you can sign up here

3. Amazon AWS Account: To create, set, or update an AWS RDS instance, you need an active Amazon AWS account with networking and core RDS permission. If you don’t already have, join for one here.

AWS DynamoDB Set Up Start 

AWS DynamoDB is one of the most widely used NoSQL database services, known for its scalability, high availability, and low latency performance. Its ease of use and flexibility make it a go-to solution for handling large amounts of data in production environments. Setting up a DynamoDB instance is quick and straightforward, allowing new users to get started in minutes.

Moreover, if you already have an existing DynamoDB instance, configuring it for integration with Streamkap is a smooth process. In this section, we will explore various methods to set up and configure AWS DynamoDB for seamless compatibility with Streamkap, ensuring optimized performance and reliability.

Configuring an Existing  AWS DynamoDB  for Streamkap Compatibility

Step 1: Configuring Your DynamoDB Table for Streamkap Compatibility
  • Click on the table (e.g. MusicCollection) you would like to configure for Streamkap compatibility.
  • Once you've chosen the table, navigate to the Export and Streams section to proceed with the next step.
Navigate to Export and Stream
  • Turn on the Dynamodb stream details.
Turn ON Stream
  • Select New and Old Images on the DynamoDB Streams setting to capture both the updated and previous versions of the items in your table. This ensures that any changes made to the data are fully captured.
Turn On Stream
  • Navigate to the Backups section and click on Point-in-Time Recovery (PITR) Edit button to enable continuous backups for your DynamoDB table. This enables point-in-time recovery to maintain a continuous backup of your table, allowing you to restore data to any moment within the retention window.
Turn on PITR
  • Check Turn on Point-in-Time Recovery and click Save Changes to enable the feature for your DynamoDB table.
Turn on PITR

Note: If you have multiple tables and want all of them to be compatible with Streamkap, you will need to repeat the above process for each table.

Step 2: Create an S3 bucket
  • Navigate to your AWS Management Console. and type “S3” on the search bar.
  • Click on “S3” as shown below.
Navigate to S3
  • While you can use an existing S3 bucket for Streamkap integration, creating a dedicated new bucket is recommended. This approach helps organize and isolate your Streamkap data streams. A separate bucket ensures cleaner configuration and better data management without interfering with other workflows.

Create bucket
  • Choose the bucket type as General. Plug in a bucket name (source-dynamodb-bucket).
  • Additionally, make sure to disable ACLs (Access Control Lists) under the Object Ownership section. This ensures that the S3 bucket uses the bucket owner’s permissions and simplifies access management.

Configuration S3 Bucket
  • Block all public access because it ensures that your S3 bucket and its contents are secure and not accessible to unauthorized users. This security best practice ensures your bucket and its contents remain private and accessible only to authorized users.
  • Enable versioning for the S3 bucket to preserve, retrieve, and restore every version of an object in the bucket. This is particularly useful for maintaining historical data, allowing you to recover from accidental deletions or overwrites.
Configuration S3 Bucket
  • Select SSE-S3 (Server-Side Encryption with Amazon S3-managed keys) to automatically encrypt your data at rest. This ensures that all objects stored in your S3 bucket are securely encrypted without the need for managing encryption keys.
  • Disable the bucket key for SSE-S3, as it is not necessary when using Amazon S3-managed keys. Disabling it simplifies the encryption process while still ensuring your data is securely encrypted.
Configuration S3 Bucket
Step 3: Create IAM User and Policy for Streamkap Compatibility
  • Navigate to your AWS Management Console. and type “IAM” on the search bar.
  • Click on “IAM” as shown below
Management Console
  • After clicking on IAM, navigate to the Policies section.
  • Click Create Policy to start creating a new IAM policy for DynamoDB and S3 access.
Create policy
  • To create the IAM policy, use the following configuration. Make sure to replace TableName ,AccountID and Region and S3 bucket name with your actual table name and bucket name.

These steps are necessary to set up a user and assign the appropriate permissions within the Streamkap system, ensuring that the user has access to the required resources and can perform necessary actions.
-- Create the Streamkap role 
CREATE ROLE STREAMKAP_ROLE; 

-- Grant required permissions to the role 
GRANT SELECT, CREATE, SHOW, INSERT, ALTER ON Streamkap_datawarehouse.* TO STREAMKAP_ROLE; 

-- Create the Streamkap user 
CREATE USER Streamkap_user IDENTIFIED BY '{your_password}'; 

-- Assign the role to the user 
GRANT STREAMKAP_ROLE TO Streamkap_user; 

-- Create database 
CREATE database Streamkap_datawarehouse; 

Fetching credentials from existing Destination warehouse

In this step, you will retrieve the following details:

  • Hostname: The IP address or URL of your ClickHouse instance.
  • Port (default: 8443).
  • Username : Streamkap_user or the username you selected.
  • Password: The password for the database user.
  • Database: The name of the database you previously entered.

  • It is advisable to create a dedicated user and role for Streamkap to access your ClickHouse database.
  • After running this query you will get Username (streamkap_user) and Data Warehouse (streamkap_datawarehouse).
-- Create the Streamkap role 
CREATE ROLE STREAMKAP_ROLE; 

-- Grant required permissions to the role 
GRANT SELECT, CREATE, SHOW, INSERT, ALTER ON Streamkap_datawarehouse.* TO STREAMKAP_ROLE; 

-- Create the Streamkap user 
CREATE USER Streamkap_user IDENTIFIED BY '{your_password}'; 

-- Assign the role to the user 
GRANT STREAMKAP_ROLE TO Streamkap_user; 

-- Create database 
CREATE database Streamkap_datawarehouse;

Streamkap Set Up

To connect Streamkap to DynamoDB, we need to ensure that the database is configured to accept traffic from Streamkap by safelisting Streamkap’s IP addresses.

Note: If  DynamoDB accepts traffic from anywhere in the world you can move on to the Configuring  DynamoDB for Streamkap Integration section.

Safelisting Streamkap’s IP Address

Streamkap’s dedicated IP addresses are

Service IPs
Oregon (us-west-2)
52.32.238.100
North Virginia (us-east-1) 44.214.80.49
Europe Ireland (eu-west-1)
34.242.118.75
Asia Pacific - Sydney (ap-southeast-2) 52.62.60.121

When signing up, Oregon (us-west-2) is set as the default region. If you require a different region, let us know. For more details about our IP addresses, please visit this link.

  • To safelist one of our IPs, you need to ensure that the policy assigned to your IAM user or role includes permissions for one of Streamkap's regions

Here is an example of a policy that includes access to Streamkap's safe listed IP address, make sure to replace TableName, AccountID, and Region and S3 bucket name with your actual table name and bucket name.
