The following steps describe the architecture:
-
Website users search for availability on the website served through Amazon CloudFront.
-
CloudFront sends the request log to an Amazon Kinesis Data Streams in real time.
-
Amazon Data Firehose extracts data from the Kinesis data stream for processing and delivery. AWS Lambda maps the log properties to their respective tags such as IP, headers, and cookies.
-
Amazon Data Firehose delivers the transformed logs as JSON to an Amazon Simple Storage Service data lake and an Amazon OpenSearch Service cluster.
-
An AWS Glue crawler runs on a schedule, deriving a schema from the data. It updates a Data Catalog in Amazon Athena.
-
As new purchases happen, the cookie header or session ID value and purchase information flow to the data lake and Amazon OpenSearch Service cluster.
-
Data analysts visualize historical and aggregated data through AWS Quick Sight. They view real-time data in Amazon OpenSearch Service.
