## Description
Amazon DynamoDB Streams
This is the Amazon DynamoDB Streams API Reference. This guide describes
the low-level API actions for accessing streams and processing stream
records. For information about application development with DynamoDB
Streams, see the
<http://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide//Streams.html Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide>.
Note that this document is intended for use with the following DynamoDB
documentation:
- <http://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/ Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide>
- <http://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/APIReference/ Amazon DynamoDB API Reference>
The following are short descriptions of each low-level DynamoDB Streams
API action, organized by function.
- /DescribeStream/ - Returns detailed information about a particular
stream.
- /GetRecords/ - Retrieves the stream records from within a shard.
- /GetShardIterator/ - Returns information on how to retrieve the
streams record from a shard with a given shard ID.
- /ListStreams/ - Returns a list of all the streams associated with
the current AWS account and endpoint.
Documentation is available via [Hackage](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/amazonka-dynamodb-streams)
and the [AWS API Reference](http://dynamodb-preview.s3-website-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/docs/streams-api/Welcome.html).
The types from this library are intended to be used with [amazonka](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/amazonka),
which provides mechanisms for specifying AuthN/AuthZ information and sending requests.
Use of lenses is required for constructing and manipulating types.
This is due to the amount of nesting of AWS types and transparency regarding
de/serialisation into more palatable Haskell values.
The provided lenses should be compatible with any of the major lens libraries
[lens](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/lens) or [lens-family-core](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/lens-family-core).
