Data In Motion: apache-solr

Building Search Indexes with Apache NiFi Streams

I can go to my Apache Solr dashboard hosted on Cloudera Data Platform - Data Center via port :8983/solr/#/

For those who have done the CFM or CDF Hands on Labs, we extend that lab to store to SOLR.

Login to Solr

Create a Collection for Your Data (sensors)

NiFi Flow (Data in, Output Records to Solr)

We need to configure the processor. Just set Solr Type to Cloud, set Solr Location to URL:2181/solr and then pick your record reader ours is JSON. You also need to select Fields to Index in the data. In our JSON file I pick the timestamp and Id.
