AWS Kinesis Video Stream and Greengrass Core Device : High Availability Architecture

Question

I'm attempting to stream 50+ on-prem RTSP cameras to AWS Kinesis Video Streams. Given that the Edge connector for KVS must be deployed on an on-prem  Linux machine, how can I ensure high availability and avoid single point of failure in this case, so that if the on-prem Linux machine fails for whatever reason, the camera streaming continues? Please share your thoughts and ideas; they will be greatly useful to me.

Answer

Here is the reference architecture for AWS hosted high availability architecture for Kinesis video streams.

In your case, since it is on prem, you can create a replicator and store it in Amazon DynamoDB per the architecture recommendations. This way one stream goes to linux box in on-prem, the replicator stream is sent to Amazon DynamoDB, providing high availability necessary.
