 Q274. What is a shard in Kinesis stream ?Amazon Web Services (AWS)
Ans. A shard is a uniquely identified group of data records in a stream or we can say that Shard is a partition in Kinesis stream. A shard supports a fixed bandwidth i.e fixed number of messages per second. The total capacity of the stream is the sum of the capacities of its shards. If the data rate changes, we can allocate / deallocate more shards to accommodate that.

 Q275. What is the difference between single instance Web environment and Load Balanced Auto Scaling ? Amazon Web Services (AWS)
Ans. Single instance means there is only 1 instance that will bear all the traffic load whereas Load balanced server means that there will be a cluster of servers that will host the application and load will be balanced distributed among them. Auto Scaling means that the number of instances will be expanded / shrunken based on the rule. Rule could be the traffic count , response time etc.
