THIS IS A TEST INSTANCE. ALL YOUR CHANGES WILL BE LOST!!!!
Now that we have created a new telemetry we can see how we can add new enrichments to that telemetry. In this exercise we will be looking at adding a whois enrichment to the Squid telemetry we setup in the previous entry. Whois data is expensive so we will not be providing it. Instead I wrote a basic whois scraper (out of context for this exercise) that produces a CSV format for whois data as follows:

Please cut and paste this data into a file called "whois_ref.csv" on your virtual machine.

And another config to load the zookeeper enrichment config:

In order to demonstrate the enrichment capabilities of Metron you need to drop all existing indexes for Squid where the data was ingested prior to enrichments being enabled. To do so go back to the head plugin and deleted the indexes like so:
No need to drop index
Make sure you delete all Squid indexes. Re-ingest the data (see previous blog post) and the messages should be automatically enriched. The new message should look as follows:
