Joe Witt updated NIFI-8962:
---------------------------
    Description: 
For users that need to distribute load of their data an additional strategy 
with overflow style behavior is needed.  This new strategy would allow for data 
to flow to relationships in a specific order and only send to the next 
relationship if the preceding relationship was full/backpressure applied.

The DistributeLoad processor has the ability to support additional strategies 
and is designed for this logic.


  was:
Create a new processor, DivertLoad. This processor will send FlowFiles to the 
primary relationship as long as it is available (i.e. back pressure is not 
preventing FlowFiles from being sent to this relationship.) If the primary 
relationship is unavailable, FlowFiles will be sent to an alternate overflow 
relationship.
This processor will allow specialized or alternate processing to occur by the 
flow if a given connection has reached its back pressure limit.
