> 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
> Priority: Major
>
> 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.
