Using ES to index a local instance of dynamoDb on Windows

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Folks, I want to get familiar with the full-text indexing abilities of ES against dynamoDB using a local dynamoDb instance. Is it possible to point ES at a local dynamoDB instance in this way?

Elasticsearch itself has no mechanism to pull data from an external datasource like DynamoDB. You would use an ingestion tool like Logstash for that.

It seems that AWS has made a plugin for Logstash available that allows you to sync data from DynamoDB in near-real time. You can find more information on that plugin's Github repository: https://github.com/awslabs/logstash-input-dynamodb

Thanks Abdon, looks like logstash is the way to go
