Nifi Flow for writing to S3, WASB and Google Storage.
Run the flow, watch as the twitter messages are captured and then aggregated before putting them in storage.
Azure Storage:
Now you can go to your Azure Portal and look in the container and you should see aggregated messages organized by year/month/day.
Google Storage:
Open Google Cloud Platform and go to your Storage service. Google Storage will now contain. the aggregated messages organized by year/month/day.
AWS Storage:
S3 bucket in your AWS account will now have aggregated Twitter messages organized by year/month/day.
Now let’s see what’s happening here. I will only focus on the three main important processors as the others make up the simple flow. The entire flow template is available as an xml file and you can download: nificloudstorage.xml
