             Summary: Support lower fidelity retention of network traffic over 
time
                 Key: METRON-477
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-477
             Project: Metron
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Jon Zeolla


Currently fastcapa supports full pcap capture.  I would like to see the ability 
to retain network traffic for longer periods of time but at increasing less 
fidelity.  

For instance:
 - Full PCAP is ingested and stored in bucket 1
 - Transition "Full PCAP" to "Truncated PCAP" after bucket 1 hits X size, 
stored in bucket 2
 - Transform the truncated PCAP into flows or daily summaries after bucket 2 
hits X size, stored in bucket 3

This system should be setup so that the transition jobs are highly configurable 
(as in sizes for each bucket, truncation cutoffs length, transition ordering, 
etc.).  In addition, both the full pcap and truncated pcap should be able to be 
retrieved using the same method (CLI, UI, etc.).
