David Handermann commented on NIFI-15150:
-----------------------------------------

[~jrsteinebrey] This requires some further consideration before going forward.

Unlike the Provenance Repository, the Audit Service is not a extension point, 
even at the framework level. Making it configurable would require introducing 
new configuration properties, along with the potential for arbitrary properties 
to support other implementations. In addition, the Audit Service relates more 
to framework security that Provenance tracking. It is also important to note 
that the NoOpProvenanceRepository was originally designed for MiNiFi where 
Provenance tracking is less meaningful without a UI.

More recent changes introduced the Flow Action Reporter as a framework 
extension as an optional way to send flow configuration changes to a new 
location, while still persisting changes in the standard location.

There may be other reasons to consider alternative storage solutions for the 
Audit Service.

Given these considerations, this sounds like something that should be outlined 
through a NiFi Improvement Proposal. If you can write up the proposal in the 
NIP project and provide more background and how it could work, that seems like 
a potential next step.

> As the Provenance Repository can be turned off using
