| <p class="description"> |
| MiNiFi—a subproject of Apache NiFi—is a complementary data collection approach that supplements the core tenets of NiFi in dataflow management, focusing on the collection of data at the source of its creation. |
| </p> |
| <p class="description"> |
| Specific goals for the initial thrust of the MiNiFi effort comprise: |
| <ul> |
| <li>Small size and low resource consumption</li> |
| <li>Central management of agents</li> |
| <li>Generation of data provenance (full chain of custody of information)</li> |
| <li>Integration with NiFi for follow-on dataflow management</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| Perspectives of the role of MiNiFi should be from the perspective of the agent acting immediately at, or directly adjacent to, source sensors, systems, or servers. |
