How difficult is it for an external engineering team to build a NiFi 'package' that the central ops team can just deploy and run?
I manage a fairly complex platform and would like to use our central NiFi solution to pull logs/metrics from it (very high volume, TBs per day). However, right now the NiFi team manages all of their own configuration and deployments and I'm concerned that the complexity and speed at which our platform moves is going to create a constant source of friction and work for them that is going to be subject to their own prioritization (as it should be obviously)
I'd vastly prefer that we build a self-contained package of sorts that they can simply deploy. It would have a combination of built in and custom processors and probably 10-20 flows.
Is this a difficult balance to achieve? Any suggestions for blog posts or articles on a good approach?
Thanks!
