How to run Nifi without Visual Designer ? Is there a way to productionize it ?

Hello

What the NiFi server exposes/provides is a RESTFul API. If you attach your web browser to it you'll get a visually friendly UI. You can lock down access via 2-Way SSL in HDF 1.0 and in the upcoming HDF 1.1 you can also do username/password with active directory or directory server via LDAP.

Thanks

Joe

Thanks for the reply Joe, I was wondering more like integrating with Ozzie and so on directly. NIFI is cool we could quickly develop prototypes and demonstrate concepts cutting coding cycles.

Does Horton-works have reference to production customers using it...I guess it might be to early to ask. If yes, it would be exciting to hear a case-study.

We will wait for HDF 1.1 and see it would be good to see AD or LDAP or user isolation and direct integration with traditional schedulers.
