That context.yield is what is controlled by the processor configuration so
that the user can choose how often this retry should happen, which I think is
the right fit. However, it could be interesting to have different yield
strategies as options; as an example, an exponential backoff among them.

> Riemann (http://riemann.io) is a new framework for monitoring distributed
> systems. It's particular useful for sending ad-hoc events such as, heartbeats
> and metrics. It would be nice if NiFi had a PutRiemann processor for writing
> events using the NiFi expression language.
> A simple use case would be a data flow that repeatedly checks specific
> services over TCP, HTTP, etc and checks into Riemann. Another example would
> be detecting a blip in events coming down a stream using a simple event
> heartbeat mechanism. I'll post a couple visuals to help make these examples
> more concrete.
> I have an initial PutRiemann processor made. I will post the patch via a
> Github pull request later today.
