Kinesis is not necessarily well-suited fan-out. It is very well suited for fan-in (single consumer, multiple producers).
Each shard allows at most 5 GetRecords operations per second. If you want to fan out to many consumers, you will reach those limits quickly and have to implement a significant latency/throughput tradeoff to make it work.
