Thanks Alex.
Yes exactly so.I was actually aware of it was challenging to do it in the main 
method of flink, even though the push appears after the my  datastream  is 
attached to kinesis , due to lazy execution, once the stream is connected then 
my publish did not work.
If the publish is done by an outside service then obviously no issues..

Hi Sathi,

I believe the issue is because you pushed the event into the stream and then 
you started up a consumer app to start reading after that. If you push an event 
into the kinesis stream prior to starting up a reader that sets its initial 
stream position to LATEST, it will not read that record because you told it to 
start reading from the time you started up the consumer app. "LATEST" does not 
mean read the last event that was pushed into the stream, it means start 
reading from "now"/consumer app start basically.
