--------------------------------------
Summary: A processor to facilitate retrying FlowFiles
Key: NIFI-3792
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-3792
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Joseph Percivall
Assignee: Joseph Percivall
When dealing with processor failures in production, potentially related to
network issues, the current best practice is to retry the flowfile a couple
times before declaring it a failure[1]. This currently requires multiple
processors and penalizing the flowfile isn't possible. Also if the flow is not
fast enough, back-pressure can cause a livelocked state which requires manual
intervention.
A new processor should be added to not only encourage best practices but also
offer configuration options to deal with un-optimal situations.
