             Summary: Create a general purpose Aggregating processor
                 Key: NIFI-1926
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1926
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Oleg Zhurakousky
            Assignee: Oleg Zhurakousky


Based on multiple question on mailing list it appears that we need to have a 
general purpose processor to aggregate data (FlowFiles or content of FlowFiles 
etc). Basically provide an implementation of this 
http://www.enterpriseintegrationpatterns.com/patterns/messaging/Aggregator.html

Keep in mind that while MergeContent processor could be looked at as one of the 
variation of aggregation, the pattern and the problem has much more moving 
parts that need to be addressed (release, correlation, and aggregation 
strategies). So the new processor should be flexible enough to handle variety 
of aggregation use cases.
