Israel Ekpo commented on FLUME-2035: ------------------------------------ I think this is going to require having specialized sources and channels for this sink. This will allow for easier implementation of graph-specific logic as the data flows downstream which could vary based on the data structures involved. The logic could depend on if each event will represent just a vertex or a subgraph (directed or undirected). I suspect the events will represent a subgraph where each vertex within the graph will have a degree of one or greater. Most of the sources and channels don't really handle graph data out of the box. I will put some more thought into this and put my feedback later. Nevertheless, I think this is a great idea and an excellent intiative! > GraphSink for flume > ------------------- > > Key: FLUME-2035 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-2035 > Project: Flume > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Sinks+Sources > Reporter: Saikat Kanjilal > Original Estimate: 168h > Remaining Estimate: 168h > > The goal of this feature is to implement a graph sink for flume , the sink > will connect to both Titan and neo4j and others through an abstraction layer. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
