David Handermann updated NIFI-9823:
-----------------------------------
Status: Patch Available (was: Open)
> Remove VolatileContentRepository
> --------------------------------
>
> Key: NIFI-9823
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-9823
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core Framework
> Reporter: David Handermann
> Assignee: David Handermann
> Priority: Minor
>
> The {{VolatileContentRepository}} implementation of the Content Repository
> interface supports storing FlowFile content claims in heap memory without
> writing to a file system. Although this capability has potential uses, the
> implementation is not optimal, and the repository itself has been broken for
> several releases. Several framework updates to content claim processing
> result in expected behavior when using the {{VolatileContentRepository}},
> leading to problems that can be difficult to troubleshoot. For these reasons,
> the current {{VolatileContentRepository}} and associated documentation should
> be removed from future releases.
> Future efforts to support a similar capabilities may build on NiFi Stateless
> functionality, and those efforts can be addressed in separate issues.
