Hello everyone,

This is a discussion thread for the FLIP I have recently created:

  *   FLIP-128: Enhanced Fan Out for AWS Kinesis 
Consumers<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLINK/FLIP-128%3A+Enhanced+Fan+Out+for+AWS+Kinesis+Consumers>
  *   https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-17688

Enhanced Fan Out (EFO) allows AWS Kinesis Data Stream (KDS) consumers to 
utilise a dedicated read throughput, rather than a shared quota. HTTP/2 reduces 
latency and typically gives a 65% performance boost [1]. EFO is not currently 
supported by the Flink Kinesis Consumer. Adding EFO support would allow Flink 
applications to reap the benefits, widening Flink adoption. Existing 
applications will be able to optionally perform a backwards compatible library 
upgrade and configuration tweak to inherit the performance benefits.

I look forward to your feedback,

Thanks,
