             Summary: Support HTTP(S) as a transport mechanism for Site-to-Site
                 Key: NIFI-1857
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1857
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core Framework
            Reporter: Koji Kawamura
            Assignee: Koji Kawamura


We should add support for using HTTP(S) for site-to-site to be an alternative 
to the current socket based approach.

This would support the same push based or pull based approach site-to-site 
offers now but it would use HTTP(S) for all interactions to include learning 
about ports, learning about NCM topology, and actually exchanging data. This 
mechanism should also support interaction via an HTTP proxy.

This would also require some UI work to allow the user to specify which 
protocol for site-to-site to use such as 'raw' vs 'http'. We also need to 
document any limitations with regard to SSL support for this mode and we'd need 
to provide 'how-to' when using proxies like http_proxy or something else.
