Hey folks, There's been great efforts to get an initial working implementation of MiNiFi in C++. This currently provides a great start on the core functionalities that the Java equivalent provides. Perhaps the neatest of all these items is the C++ implementation of the Site to Site protocol allowing transmission from a native instance to the NiFi we have all come to use and love in a more bite-sized binary.
To that end and to aid in making the MiNiFi effort a bit more concrete, I would like to get a vote started on 0.0.1 (JIRA cpp-0.0.1) in the next few days and would be happy to act as the RM. There are still a few issues to tackle mostly tailored around documentation The hope is that with a Java and C++ implementation in hand there will be a larger foundation on which people can get involved and participate. This is especially crucial as we start expanding the framework, look to solidify APIs, and consider protocols to facilitate the design and implementation of centralized management and bi-directional communications. There is still much to be done both with our MiNiFi agent implementations and everything that follows. This marks another nice milestone of progress and will further generate a multitude of avenues for people to get involved. Looking forward to the new possibilities and challenges ahead. --Aldrin
