We use NiFi for all our ETL, and have done so very happily for several
years (including persuading partner organisations to adopt it); we
have recently started using Airflow for scheduling periodic machine
learning algorithm execution and retraining.

My £0.02 - we probably could do everything we currently do in Airflow
using NiFi, but for our Airflow use cases, things like task duration
are interesting metrics to monitor and I don't immediately know how we
would do this with NiFi. Plus the different user communities make two
separate tools no bad thing.
