Version 0.6.0 (DRAFT/Not Released)

Version 0.6.0 of Apache NiFi provides several new features and addresses multiple bugs or improvements.

Highlights of the 0.6.0 release include:

• New Application Features
  • NiFi's REST API can now support Kerberos Authentication while running in an Oracle JVM.
• Improvements to Existing Capabilities
  
  • ListenRELP and ListenSyslog now alert when the internal queue is full.  This means data receipt exceeds consumption rates as configured and data loss might occur so it is good to alert the user.
  • ListHDFS will now retain simple and finite state rather than an enumeration of all files seen with the same timestamp.
  • ListenSyslog, ListenRELP, ListenUDP have vastly improved performance and simpler configuration.
  • Updated Spark Receiver to support Apache Spark 1.6
  • Interaction with HBase now supports Kerberos enabled Apache HBase.
• New Extensions
  • New processor 'QueryDatabaseTable' monitors and tracks timestamp of latest record retrieved to support simple change capture cases.
  • (Validate) Added a new processor that can be bootstrapped by a Spring Application Context.  Could enable someone to run Apache Camel routes or Spring Integrations flows in NIFi for example.
  • (validate) Added new processors to Get and Put data with Amazon Kinesis
  • (validate) Added new processors to Get and Set data via SNMP
  • New processor to put data to Amazon Web Services Lamba service.
  • New processors to Put data to and Get data from Splunk.
• Important Stability Improvements
  • Resolved corner case that could lead to corruption of flow file repository during shutdown.
  • Resolved a case that lead NiFi to hold open too many files when using run durations longer than 0 ms.
  • Resolved flow.xml.gz ordering issue that led to upgrade instability for clusters.
