Thanks for the links Joe, I will talk to the guys at work to get their thoughts
to see if they cover everything they may require.

Dave,
Absolutely this is the sort of flexibility and centralized management
we're working to enable with the 1.0.0 release. In fact recently Matt
Gilman put in a series of tickets to head in this direction. Those
are based on roadmap/feature proposals written up a while ago. You
can see those here :
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NIFI/Multi-Tentant+Dataflow
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NIFI/Support+Authorizer+API
There are centralized security/policy management services including a
couple Apache projects and we'll delegate calls to them.
Take a look and see how they map to your thinking and please feel free
to suggest ideas or ask questions to ensure it is shaped in a way that
helps you move forward. Great time to have these discussions.
Thanks
Joe
