Mike Percy commented on FLUME-2299:
-----------------------------------
Yes, it's a general interface that could be implemented to create such a
sink, as one example. Essentially, a sink interface and the associated
configuration wiring that allows writing sinks that pull from the channel
on demand in a natural way.
> Support an event-driven sink runner

> Project: Flume
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Sinks+Sources
> Reporter: Mike Percy
>
> For integrating with "pull" based systems such as Storm, it would be more
> elegant for Flume to support an event-driven sink runner which would not try
> to poll the process() method on the Sink all of the time. It would just call
> configure() and start() on the Sink and let it run.
