We are excited to announce the General Availability of Cloudera Flow Management - Kubernetes Operator and Cloudera Streaming - Kubernetes Operator, allowing Cloudera customers to run Apache NiFi and Apache Kafka on Kubernetes. While Kubernetes started out as a container orchestration platform where customers would mostly run stateless applications and APIs, it has now matured to a point where it can run stateful, large scale data processing frameworks such as Apache NiFi and Apache Kafka. We have seen this shift in Kubernetes usage in our customer base and are excited to meet them where they are. Use Case The Kubernetes Operators allow NiFi and Kafka customers to deploy their workloads on existing shared Kubernetes clusters. Kubernetes Operators automate the installation and lifecycle management of applications on Kubernetes, which significantly lowers cost of operations and allows customers to focus on use case implementation instead of cluster operations. For customers, this means that they can take advantage of: Greater hybrid portability and accelerated deployments via streamlined life cycle management Increased resource efficiency via shared clusters Improved scalability via Kubernetes orchestration tools like OpenShift Release Highlights Flow Management Operator GA (NiFi): Deploys and manages NiFi and NiFi Registry Supports NiFi 1.25 and offers NiFi 2.0 (Tech Preview) Automatically creates zookeeper-less NiFi deployments Provides cfmctl command line tool for easy installation & setup Manual and (CPU based) auto-scaling of NiFi clusters Increased durability and availability through auto-recovering NiFi pods Streaming Operator GA (Kafka) Deploys and manages Kafka, Zookeeper, and Cruise Control Supports Kafka 3.7 Provides rack awareness and HA Supports various authentication options (OAuth, LDAP, mTLS, PLAIN) Supports authorization through Kafka ACLs Prometheus integration for monitoring Learn More Join us for our release webinar showcasing an end-to-end financial services use case running on the new Kubernetes Operators.

Deployment alerts for NiFi bulletins CDF now detects bulletin error messages in NiFi flow deployments and displays them as a warning in the dashboard. Flow Definition versions can now be tagged Customers can now use tags to identify versions easier. Common use cases for tags are applying a custom versioning scheme, or labeling flow versions as ‘ready for deployment’. The CLI introduces new commands to search flow definitions for tags and streamlines the CI/CD process. Deployment configurations can now be exported and reused Customers can now export a configuration archive of existing deployments and reuse them when creating new deployments. This speeds up redeploying new versions of the same flow through the Deployment Wizard by filling in parameter values, KPI configurations etc. from the deployment configuration.

The latest release (2.6.0-b311) of Cloudera DataFlow (CDF) on CDP Public Cloud introduces NiFi 1.23, vertical scaling, several cost optimization features, developer productivity improvements and the ability to collect Diagnostic Bundles through the UI.
Key Deployment & Platform features for this release
Latest NiFi version: Flow Deployments and Test Sessions now support the latest Apache NiFi 1.23 release.
Up to 10% savings on compute resources by removing Zookeeper from deployments and test sessions. CDF now uses a NiFi and Kubernetes native clustering protocol.
Up to 50% savings on storage cost (AWS only) by moving from GP2 to GP3 volumes and introducing a new, cost efficient ‘standard’ storage profile
New ‘Suspend Deployment’ behavior now terminates associated compute resources resulting in Cloudera and infrastructure cost savings.
Manual Vertical scaling allows customers to change the deployment sizes easily after a deployment has been created. Allows customers to start small and easily scale to bigger nodes as needed.
Select between ‘standard’ and ‘performance’ storage profiles when creating a deployment based on your needs.
Create Diagnostic bundles and attach to support cases for faster support case resolution. Allows customers to easily collect relevant logs without sifting through S3 or Kubernetes pods.
The Dashboard now displays alerts for failed Kubernetes resources like NiFi pods, statefulsets etc. This makes it easier to see when there are underlying issues on the K8s cluster.
A new ‘workspace view’ for centralized resource management allows users to see all resources (deployments, drafts, inbound connections, custom NAR configs) in a central place.
Support for new Kubernetes versions AKS 1.26 / EKS 1.25
Key Flow Designer features for this release
Support for sensitive dynamic properties The Flow Designer now supports creation of sensitive dynamic properties for several components like InvokeHTTP and ExecuteStreamCommand
Download NiFi app log directly from the test session for easier troubleshooting when access to logs is needed during development
Copy bulletin messages using a ‘copy’ icon to share them with colleagues or support

Hi @janis-ax , This reply comes a bit late but I was just researching the same issue. According to the official NiFi documentation, this should be possible using the "RPath" function in the 'Where' clause. Check out the "SQL over hierarchical data" section here: https://nifi.apache.org/docs/nifi-docs/components/org.apache.nifi/nifi-standard-nar/latest/org.apache.nifi.processors.standard.QueryRecord/additionalDetails.html
