nicolas maillard updated NIFI-1037:
-----------------------------------
    Description: 
HDFS has an Inotify interface that enables to access the HDFS edit stream.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6634
Creating a processor to listen in and get notifications either for select 
directories or select actions would have many applications.
- Stream to a search engine the activity on HDFS
- Wait for specific actions or files to trigger workflows, like duplication to 
other clusters
- Validate ingestion processes
etc..
probably more I don't think of.
I have a first working beta version that needs to evolve
it reuses the Hadoop-nar-bundle
Needs a HDFS 2.7  dependency currently done through editing the Hadop-lib bundle

let me know if this idea makes sense and would be of interest to the community
would love to contribute the idea
