If we had an ID for each streaming session then distributed tracing could easily reconstruct session failure by providing service topology, retry and error tags, and latency measurements for all service calls. Our distributed tracing infrastructure is grouped into three sections: tracer library instrumentation, stream processing, and storage.

In fact, this is been proven by our customers as Amazon Aurora remains the fastest growing service in AWS history. Use cases such as gaming, ad tech, and IoT lend themselves particularly well to the key-value data model where the access patterns require low-latency Gets/Puts for known key values. The opposite is true.
