EdgeAI: Google Coral with Coral Environmental Sensors and TPU With NiFi and MiNiFi

*Building MiNiFi IoT Apps with the new Cloudera EFM *

It is very easy to build a drag and drop EdgeAI application with EFM and then push to all your MiNiFi agents.

NiFi Flow Receiving From MiNiFi Java Agent

In a cluster in my CDP-DC Cluster I consume Kafka messages sent from my remote NiFi gateway to publish alerts to Kafka and push records to Apache HBase and Apache Kudu. We filter our data with Streaming SQL.

*We can use SQL to route, create aggregates like averages, chose a subset of fields and limit data returned. Using the power of Apache Calcite, Streaming SQL in NiFi is a game changer against Record Data Types including CSV, XML, Avro, Parquet, JSON and Grokable text. Read and write different formats and convert when your SQL is done. Or just to SELECT * FROM FLOWFILE to get everything. *

We can see this flow from Atlas as we trace the data lineage and provenance from Kafka topic.

We can search Atlas for Kafka Topics.

From coral Kafka topic to NiFi to Kudu.

Pushing Alerts to Slack from NiFi

I am running on Apache NiFi 1.11.1 and wanted to point out a new feature. Download flow: Will download the highlighted flow/pgroup as JSON.

Looking at NiFi counters to monitor progress:
