aws-kinesis: Show all streams in the account.
$ aws kinesis list-streams
try on your machine

The command "aws kinesis list-streams" is used with the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) to list all the Amazon Kinesis data streams in your AWS account.

Amazon Kinesis is a service provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS) that allows you to collect, process, and analyze streaming data in real-time. It is commonly used for scenarios like ingesting and processing data from website clickstreams, IoT sensor data, application logs, social media feeds, and many others.

When you run the "aws kinesis list-streams" command, it communicates with the AWS service and retrieves a list of all the Kinesis data streams that you have created. This can be helpful when you want to see the existing streams in your account, manage or configure the streams, or perform actions on specific streams using other commands provided by the AWS CLI.

The output of this command is a list of stream names, which are unique identifiers for your Kinesis data streams.
