Apache NiFi – MiNiFiTaking Dataflow Management to the EdgeJoe Percivall - @JPercivall

About Me• Software Engineer at Hortonworks

• Apache NiFi committer and PMC member

• Github: github.com/JPercivall

Agenda• Why create MiNiFi?

• MiNiFi 0.0.1-Java

• Demo

• Prospective plans

• Demo

• Web-based User Interface for creating, monitoring, & controlling data flows

• Directed graphs of data routing and transformation

• Highly configurable - modify data flow at runtime, dynamically prioritize data

• Easily extensible through development of custom components

• Data Provenance tracks data through entire system

Apache NiFiDataflow

Apache NiFiKey Features

• Guaranteed delivery• Data buffering

- Backpressure- Pressure release

• Prioritized queuing• Flow specific QoS

- Latency vs. throughput- Loss tolerance

• Data provenance• Supports push and pull

models

• Recovery/recording a rolling log of fine-grained history

• Visual command and control

• Flow templates• Pluggable/multi-role

security• Designed for extension• Clustering

Same Extensible framework (nars)

In minifi-0.0.1, the nifi-0.6.1 standard processors are bundled (~20mb)– Tailing a Log– UpdateAttribute– Routing by content or attributes– PutEmail

Allows MiNiFi to use NiFi processors

MiNiFi 0.0.1-Java

Declarative configuration of processing flows through a YAML configuration file Exporting of provenance events to another NiFi instance via a Reporting Task over Site to

Site Flow change configuration watcher implementations that provide reloading a NiFi

instance when receiving an updated flow over REST or changes on a file system Providing a mechanism to query an instance's status

<40mb binary distribution

Release Notes

Simple Config.ymlTail a rolling file -> Site to Site

But what about the NiFi.properties values?Can omitted for default values

Provenance Reporting

Site to Site Reporting Task JSON formatted provenance events Configured via config.yml Optional

“SiteToSiteProvenanceReportingTask” in NiFi 0.7.0

A bit more complex Config.ymlTail a rolling File -> Secure Site to Site with Provenance

MiNiFi Toolkit

Convert NiFi templates to config.yml

Validate config.yml files

CLI to facilitate config.yml building

Config Change Notifiers Two implementations

– RestChangeNotifier• Http(s)

– FileChangeNotifier

Configured in bootstrap.conf

Change notifier update

Bootstrap

ConfigurationChange Notifiers

1. Initial state– Both running

MiNiFi

Bootstrap

user creates new configuration2. User sends update through

notifier– HTTP(S) post request– Change watched file

MiNiFi

Bootstrap

3. Bootstrap validation– Basic validation– Rest notifier will respond

accordingly– Results logged

validate new configuration

4. Bootstrap saves and transforms

– Copy old config.yml to a swap file

nifi.properties

flow.xml.gz

transforms into

Bootstrap

nifi.properties

flow.xml.gz

attempt restart

config.ymlsaves new

transforms into

5. Bootstrap attempts restart– MiNiFi reads in the new

nifi.properties and flow.xml.gz

6. Success or Fail– Successful restart continue

processing– Failure, rollback to old

config– Existing Data is mapped or

orphaned

Prospective Plans MiNiFi 0.0.1-Cpp

– Close to a vote to release– Code itself is 1.2mb without optimization– Data size

• ~20mb for dynamic RAM for heap• Static ~50kb

Configurable Status Reporters– minifi.sh flowStatus -> regular status update

• MQTT?• HTTP?• S2S?

Handle component Annotation Data– UpdateAttribute advanced rules

Major Feature - Centralized Command and Control

Design at a centralized place, deploy on the edge– Flow deployment– NAR deployment– Agent deployment

Version control of flows Agent status monitoring Bi-directional command and control

Centralized management console with a UI

MiNiFi differentiation

Let me get the key parts of NiFi close to where data begins and provide bidrectional communication

NiFi lives in the data center. Give it an enterprise server or a cluster of them. MiNiFi lives close to where data is born and may be a guest on that device or system
