             Summary: Indexing Prioritization by Data Type
                 Key: METRON-240
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-240
             Project: Metron
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Domenic Puzio


All data sources go through the Enrichment topology, which means that sources 
should be indexed as they come into the Kafka queue. However, sometimes (for 
example, during a DDOS attack) one sensor could double or triple in volume for 
a period of time, swamping the Enrichment topology during that time and 
preventing data from other sensors from being indexed.

We would like to be able to prioritize data from particular sensors so that 
even if one sensor is extra volume-heavy, the high-priority sources are still 
indexed. So if we are running 3 parser topologies, we would like to give them a 
prioritization so that one gets indexed before the others in the case that the 
Enrichment topology cannot keep up.
