You might want to consider importing KeeperException so catch
(KeeperException.NodeExistsException e) doesn't need the class in multiple
places
You also might want to consider refactoring to extract the inner classes to
be their own classes!
> Controller Service for Processor Leader Elections

> Key: NIFI-3681
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-3681
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Joseph Niemiec
> Assignee: Joseph Niemiec
>
> Today I find a need for NiFi Cluster to allow a specific set of processors to
> perform a 'LeaderElection' of sorts to allow for a single processor to
> update the process shared cluster state with assignments (both initial and
> recovery.) The CS would be responsible for joining a Zookeeper group, the
> logic itself, performing new elections should an leader die, etc...
> At its core I envision a simple API provided by the CS
> * String - whoIsLeader
> * List[String] - aliveElectors
> * Long- LastElectionEpoch ? - Not sure about this, but would it be good to
> detect if an election occurred and the leader did not change but the election
> occured. Maybe a UUID-4?
> While thinking ZK is best as Clustered NiFi already requires it would there
> be value in implementing a standalone RAFT or PAXOS that runs at the cluster
> level?
