Andre commented on NIFI-940:
----------------------------
The comment that I would make from a "user" standpoint is that having to use an
updateattribute processor will cause a significant overhead to simple tasks
like saving based on date, sending host, etc.
I remember reading comments in the past that to maximise performance DFMs
should strive to use as few processors as possible and this seems like a good
example of that. Should I have to create a provenance event just to set a
filename? Perhap yes (from a provenance point if view) but if it is the case
then we may want to document this rationale
> Expose 'filename' as a Property on PutFile, PutHDFS, PutFTP, PutSFTP, and
> other Put-esque processors
