Objective
The Litmus Access Processors for Apache Nifi allow customers to both- read data from a Litmus Edge, and publish data to a Litmus Edge using Apache Nifi. This supports powerful and scalable directed graphs of data routing, transformation, and system mediation logic.
Being able to integrate Litmus Edge, through its Access component into a Apache Nifi flow, makes it possible to automate the flow of data both- from Litmus Edge to other enterprise systems, and from external sources to Litmus Edge. This makes it easy to add Litmus Edge systems into an enterprise architecture, allowing to take advantage of capabilities provided by Apache Nifi- like compliance and security, systems fail, or handling differences in the speed of a publishing and consuming system.
Example Use Case
For customers who have already deployed Apache Nifi to create and manage their data flows, the Litmus Access Processors enables them to integrate Litmus Edge into this architecture as well.
This would allow customers to for example publish data from Litmus Edge to Cloudera or Amazon Lambda Function. This will also take advantage of any processors that the customers have created on top of Apache Nifi.
