E. Sammer commented on FLUME-856:
---------------------------------
Praveen:
The proper way to get events across hosts is to use the AvroSource and
AvroSink. The AvroSink is just an Avro client that knows how to send events to
the an AvroSource. Here's an example of two machines (A and B) and sending data
from A to B.
A.sources = seq1
A.channels = mem1
A.sinks = avroSink
B.sources = avroSource
B.channels = mem2
B.sinks = log1
A.sources.seq.type = seq
A.sources.seq.channels = mem1
A.channels.mem1.type = memory
A.sinks.avroSink.type = avro
A.sinks.avroSink.hostname = B
A.sinks.avroSink.port = 12345
A.sinks.avroSink.channel = mem1
B.sources.avroSource.type = avro
B.sources.avroSource.bind = 0.0.0.0
B.sources.avroSource.port = 12345
B.sources.seq.channels = mem2
B.channels.mem1.type = memory
B.sinks.log1.type = logger
B.sinks.log1.channel = mem1
The resulting dataflow is:
A:
seq -> memory channel -> avro client
B:
avro server -> memory channel -> logger
Let me know if it makes sense to close this.
Thanks!
