Hello Joe,
Currently we use Flume for sending avro message to our big data platform.
Now I want to replace flume with NIfi. Since the sender is a flume agent,
I need to use the flume source.
If I configure this sourcs for receiving netcat, I can access the tcp port.
Using avro as type doesn't work. If I set "run schedule" ti 60 sec, then it
work, I can telnet to the configured tcp port.
Regards,
Chris
