The Konpyūtāika NiFi operator is a Kubernetes operator to automate provisioning, management, autoscaling and operations of Apache NiFi clusters deployed to K8s.

Overview

Apache NiFi is an open-source solution that supports powerful and scalable directed graphs of data routing, transformation, and system mediation logic. Some of the high-level capabilities and objectives of Apache NiFi include, and some of the main features of the NiFiKop are:

• Fine grained node configuration support
• Graceful rolling upgrade
• graceful NiFi cluster scaling
• encrypted communication using SSL
• the provisioning of secure NiFi clusters
• Advanced Dataflow and user management via CRD

Some of the roadmap features:

• Monitoring via Prometheus
• Automatic reaction and self healing based on alerts (plugin system, with meaningful default alert plugins)
• graceful NiFi cluster scaling and rebalancing

Motivation

There are already some approaches to operating NiFi on Kubernetes, however, we did not find them appropriate for use in a highly dynamic environment, nor capable of meeting our needs.

• Helm chart
• Cloudera Nifi Operator

Finally, our motivation is to build an open source solution and a community which drives the innovation and features of this operator.
