Realistic View of Enterprise Data Flow

• For agile and immediate creation, configuration, control of dataflowsVisual Command and Control
• Ensures trust of your dataData Lineage (Provenance)
• Because not all data is of equal importanceData Prioritization
• Since not all senders/receivers/connections work perfectly all the timeData Buffering/Back-Pressure
• Adapt to different situations with different requirementsControl Latency vs Throughput
• Security of data, and data accessSecure Control Plane/Data Plane
• ScalabilityScale out Clustering
• Ecosystem flexibility and growthExtensibility
Apache NiFi: Designed for 8 challenges of global enterprise dataflow

What is Apache NiFi used for?
• Reliable and secure transfer of data between systems
• Delivery of data from sources to analytic platforms
• Enrichment and preparation of data:
– Conversion between formats
– Extraction/Parsing
– Routing decisions
What is Apache NiFi NOT used for?
• Distributed Computation
• Complex Event Processing
• Joins / Complex Rolling Window Operations
Use Cases for Apache NiFi

FlowFile
• Unit of data moving through the system
• Content + Attributes (key/value pairs)
Processor
• Performs the work, can access FlowFiles
Connection
• Links between processors
• Queues that can be dynamically prioritized

Analogy: FlowFiles are like HTTP Data

1. Drag and drop processors to build a flow
2. Start, stop, and configure components in real time
3. View errors and corresponding error messages
4. View statistics and health of data flow
5. Create templates of common processor & connections
Create, Run, View, Start, Stop, Change, Fix, Dataflows in Real-Time

Apache NiFi Demo: Tail Logs, Route on Content, Buffer in Kafka,
Deliver to HDFS

What is Data Provenance and Why is it Important?
BEGIN
END
LINEAGE
IT and Cloud Operators
• Understand traceability, lineage
• Enable recovery and replay
Compliance Regulations
• Provide an audit trail
• Remediation capabilities

Provenance Enables Easy Access and Traceability of Changes

Need Fine-Grained Security and Compliance?
Security
• Secured authentication
• Enterprise authorization services –
entitlements change often
• Encrypted content, encrypted
communications
• People and systems with different roles
require difference access levels
• Tagged/classified data

Repositories - Pass by reference

Repositories – Copy on Write

Data in Motion Needs Dataflow Management and Stream Processing
 Acquire data from various Wearable Device’s Cloud Instances
 Move Data from Customer Cloud Instances to on-premise instance
 Perform Intelligent Routing & Filtering of data. The routing and filtering rules will be often
changed at run-time.
 Deliver the data data to various downstream systems. New downstream apps should will always
appear and the data should be fed to it when it comes online.
 Parse the device data to standardized format that downstream sysem can understand
 Enrich the data with contextual information including patient/customer info (age, sex, etc..)
 Recognize the Pattern when the resting heart rate exceeds a certain threshold (the insight),
and then create an alert/notification.
 Run a Outlier detection model on streaming heart rate that comes in. If the score is above
certain threshold, alert on the heart rate.

Use Cases for Data in Motion
Use Cases for Data-in-Motion Using DataFlow Mgmt
• Data Ingestion
• Edge Intelligence
• First Mile Problem
• Physical Data Movement
• Simple event processing such as Route, Filter, Enrich,
Transform, etc.
When Only DataFlow
Management is
Required
Use Cases for Data-in-Motion Using DataFlow Mgmt and
Steam Processing
• Flow Management to deliver data for Stream Processing
• PLUS: Complex pattern matching on unbounded streams of
data.
When Both DataFlow
Management and
Stream Processing
