Simon Elliston Ball commented on METRON-1293:
---------------------------------------------

I see the thinking there, and there is some benefit in directly supporting 
site-to-site protocol in terms of load balancing direct from Metron to NiFi 
without the intermediate step of load balancing across kafka consumers, but I'm 
not sure I would recommend writing direct into NiFi from a resilience point of 
view, given that the NiFi content repository is not distributed. 

Still, once we've split out indexing to make it more extensible, this would be 
a good indexing option (that I would never recommend to anyone in production)

> NiFi Indexer(?) capability

> Either through an extension ( if and when they come to indexing ) or through 
> a normal module support for indexing to nifi input ports would allow for 
> flexible capabilities for systems where nifi is used.
