Goals

Faster build times for dev/testing/review/release
Smaller release artifacts
Maintain or increase the productivity of dev community (i.e., the new project structure should not be too burdensome for existing and future contributors to adopt)
Facilitate code reuse across projects, such as nifi and nifi-registry, e.g., shared nifi security provider implementations for authentication and authorization.
Position the NiFi project to more easily support and take advantage of future Java language features, such as modules.
Better separation of concerns & better defined interfaces / touch points between project components
- Promote the idea that each module contains its own code and unit tests against public APIs such that it can be developed, tested, and released independently
- Cross-module integration tests can exist outside of each module, in their own module that tests the integration of two or more modules
