Not significantly, but they differ in the finer details. Event Hubs is less elastic (since you need to choose your number of partitions on create), but it has a few more advanced options like filtering and fine-grained message replay. Kinesis has no requirement to chose a number of shards on creation, but is closer to a simple fat pipe than Event Hubs.

In intention, basic structure and pricing, they are nearly identical.
