             Summary: Update Kinesis Connectors to latest Apache licensed libraries
                 Key: FLINK-12847
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-12847
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Connectors / Kinesis
            Reporter: Dyana Rose
            Assignee: Dyana Rose


Currently the referenced Kinesis Client Library and Kinesis Producer Library code in the flink-connector-kinesis is licensed under the Amazon Software License which is not compatible with the Apache License. This then requires a fair amount of work in the CI pipeline and for users who want to use the flink-connector-kinesis.

The Kinesis Client Library v2.x and the AWS Java SDK v2.x both are now on the Apache 2.0 license.
[https://github.com/awslabs/amazon-kinesis-client/blob/master/LICENSE.txt]
[https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-java-v2/blob/master/LICENSE.txt]

There is a PR for the Kinesis Producer Library to update it to the Apache 2.0 license ([https://github.com/awslabs/amazon-kinesis-producer/pull/256])

The task should include, but not limited to, upgrading KCL/KPL to new versions of Apache 2.0 license, changing licenses and NOTICE files in flink-connector-kinesis, and adding flink-connector-kinesis to build, CI and artifact publishing pipeline, updating the build profiles, updating documentation that references the license incompatibility

The expected outcome of this issue is that the flink-connector-kinesis will be included with the standard build artifacts and will no longer need to be built separately by users.
