             Summary: Remove `CONFIG_` prefix from KinesisConfigConstants variables
                 Key: FLINK-4170
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-4170
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Streaming Connectors
            Reporter: Ufuk Celebi
             Fix For: 1.1.0


I find the static variable names verbose. I think it's clear from context that they refer to the Kinesis configuration since they are all gathered in that class.

Therefore would like to remove the {{CONFIG_}} prefix before the release, so that we have
{code}
conf.put(KinesisConfigConstants.AWS_REGION, "")
{code}
instead of 
{code}
conf.put(KinesisConfigConstants.CONFIG_AWS_REGION, "")
{code}

For longer variables it becomes even longer otherwise.

Some basic variable names that might be accessed frequently are also very long:

{code}
CONFIG_AWS_CREDENTIALS_PROVIDER_BASIC_SECRETKEY
CONFIG_AWS_CREDENTIALS_PROVIDER_BASIC_ACCESSKEYID
{code}

It might suffice to just have:
{code}
AWS_SECRET_KEY
AWS_ACCESS_KEY
{code}
