> Is there any service provider construct or similar mechanism whereby we
could provide a dropdown of identified sources and sinks
I think this is primarily intended to allow people to use their current
Flume config inside of NiFi and pave the way for more seamless integration as a
next step. I would say we want to keep this as-is for compatibility (just paste
in your current config) and create processors to wrap the widely used Flume
components, like the Avro source.
> I think because channel.setSession(…) is being called as it is during the
onTrigger method this means the processor needs to run serially
Good point. Maybe we can keep a thread-local cache of the sessions and pass
an accessor to the channel instead? Then we would be able to keep parallel
execution.
> Add processors that can run Apache Flume sources/sinks
