CDP Private Cloud Fundamentals



CDP Private Cloud Fundamentals

Cloudera, IBM, and Red Hat

Our CDP Private Cloud Fundamentals OnDemand course provides a solid introduction to CDP Private Cloud. In addition to learning what CDP Private Cloud is and how it fits into the Enterprise Data Cloud vision, you'll find out about its architecture and how it uses cloud-native design elements such as containerization in order to overcome limitations of the traditional bare metal cluster architecture. Following a summary of the system requirements, the course concludes with a demonstration of a CDP Private Cloud installation.

Processing Fixed Width and Complex Files

Processing Fixed Width and Complex Files


Pointers

The first decision you will have to make is if it's structured at all.   If it is a known type like CSV, JSON, AVRO, XML or Parquet then just use a record.

If it's semi-structured like a log file, GrokReader may work or ExtractGrok.

If it's like CSV, you may be able to tweak the CSV reader to work (say header or no header) or try one of the two CSV parsers NiFi has (Jackson or Apache Commons).    

If it's a format like PDF, Word, Excel, RTF or something like that, I have a custom processor that uses Apache Tika and that should be able to parse it into text.   Once it is text you can probably work with it.

New Features of Apache NiFi 1.13.2

 New Features of Apache NiFi 1.13.2























New Features
  • ListenFTP
  • UpdateHiveTable - Hive DDL changes -Hive Update Schema ie Data Drift ie Hive Schema Migration!!!!
  • SampleRecord - different sampling approaches to records (Interval Sampling, Probabilistic Sampling, Reservoir Sampling)
  • CDC Updates
  • Kudu updates
  • AMQP and MQTT Integration Upgrades
  • ConsumeMQTT - readers and writers added
  • HTTP access to NiFi by default is now configured to accept connections to 127.0.0.1/localhost only.  If you want to allow broader access for some reason for HTTP and you understand the security implications you can still control that as always by changing the 'nifi.web.http.host' property in nifi.properties as always. That said, please take the time to configure proper HTTPS.  We offer detailed instructions and tooling to assist.
  • ConsumeMQTT - add record reader/writer
  • The ability to run NiFi with no GUI as MiNiFi/NiFi combined code base continues.
  • Support for Kudu Dates (https://kudu.apache.org/releases/1.12.0/docs/release_notes.html)
  • Updated GRPC versions
  • Apache Calcite update
  • PutDatabaseRecord update

Here is an example NiFi ETL Flow:


Example NiFi 1.13.2 Flow:
  • ConsumeMQTT:   now with readers
  • UpdateAttribute:   set record.sink.name to kafka and recordreader.name to json.
  • SampleRecord:   sample a few of the records
  • PutRecord:   Use reader and destination service
  • UpdateHiveTable:   new sink
Consume from MQTT and read and write to/from records.

Some example attributes from a running flow:

Connection Pools for DatabaseRecordSinks can be JDBC, Hadoop and Hive.



FreeFormTextRecordSetWriter is great for writing any format.



RecordSinkService we will pick Kafka as our destination.



KafkaRecordSink from PutRecord


Reader will pick json in our example based on our UpdateAttribute, we can dynamically change this as data streams.

ReaderLookup  - lets you pick a reader based on an attribute.



We have defined readers for Parquet, JSON, AVRO, XML and CSV so no matter the type I can automagically read it.    Great for reusing code and great for cases like our new ListenFTP where you may get sent tons of different files to process.   Use one FLOW!


RecordSinkService can help you make all our flows generic so you can drop in different sinks/destinations for your writers based on what the data coming in is.   This is revolutionary for code reuse.


We can write our output in a custom format that could look like a document, HTML, fixed width, a form letter, weird delimiter or whatever you need.


Sample records using different methods.


We use the RecordSinkServiceLookup to allow us to change our sink location dynamically, we are passing in an attribute to choose Kafka.


We have pushed our data to Kafka via the KafkaRecordSink.  We can see our data easily in Streams Messaging Manager (SMM).


With a RecordReaderFactory, you can pick readers like the new WindowsEventLogReader.



As another output, we can UpdateHiveTable from our data and change the table as needed.
