Schema registry on AWS

Question

I'm evaluating kinesis as replacement for kafka. One of the things I'm missing is Schema registry equivalent solution. In particular I need:

• schema upgrade - validate compatibility with the previous version
• version avro schemas in a similar way as schema registry does

What are the options to handle 2 above? The only thing that I found was glue catalogue, but it doesn't seem to
At the end I also want to use firehose (output to redshift), but from what I understand this is not possible and will require writing custom lambda.

AWS just launched Schema Registry functionality for AWS Kinesis, https://docs.aws.amazon.com/glue/latest/dg/schema-registry.html
