Signal counter name is useful when a corresponding Wait processor needs to know the number of occurrences of different types of events, such as success or failure, or destination data source names, etc.<br/><strong>Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using flow file attributes and variable registry)</strong></td></tr><tr><td id="name"><strong>Signal Counter Delta</strong></td><td>signal-counter-delta</td><td id="default-value">1</td><td id="allowable-values"></td><td id="description">A value, or the results of an Attribute Expression Language statement, which will be evaluated against a FlowFile in order to determine the signal counter delta. Specify how much the counter should increase. For example, if multiple signal events are processed at upstream flow in batch oriented way, the number of events processed can be notified with this property at once. Zero (0) has a special meaning, it clears target count back to 0, which is especially useful when used with Wait Releasable FlowFile Count = Zero (0) mode, to provide 'open-close-gate' type of flow control. One (1) can open a corresponding Wait processor, and Zero (0) can negate it as if closing a gate.<br/><strong>Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using flow file attributes and variable registry)</strong></td></tr><tr><td id="name"><strong>Signal Buffer Count</strong></td><td>signal-buffer-count</td><td id="default-value">1</td><td id="allowable-values"></td><td id="description">Specify the maximum number of incoming flow files that can be buffered until signals are notified to cache service. The more buffer can provide the better performance, as it reduces the number of interactions with cache service by grouping signals by signal identifier when multiple incoming flow files share the same signal identifier.</td></tr><tr><td id="name"><strong>Distributed Cache Service</strong></td><td>distributed-cache-service</td><td></td><td id="allowable-values"><strong>Controller Service API: </strong><br/>AtomicDistributedMapCacheClient<br/><strong>Implementations: </strong><a href="../../../nifi-redis-nar/1.19.0/org.apache.nifi.redis.service.RedisDistributedMapCacheClientService/index.html">RedisDistributedMapCacheClientService</a><br/><a href="../../../nifi-hbase_2-client-service-nar/1.19.0/org.apache.nifi.hbase.HBase_2_ClientMapCacheService/index.html">HBase_2_ClientMapCacheService</a><br/><a href="../../../nifi-hbase_1_1_2-client-service-nar/1.19.0/org.apache.nifi.hbase.HBase_1_1_2_ClientMapCacheService/index.html">HBase_1_1_2_ClientMapCacheService</a><br/><a href="../../../nifi-couchbase-nar/1.19.0/org.apache.nifi.couchbase.CouchbaseMapCacheClient/index.html">CouchbaseMapCacheClient</a><br/><a href="../../../nifi-distributed-cache-services-nar/1.19.0/org.apache.nifi.distributed.cache.client.DistributedMapCacheClientService/index.html">DistributedMapCacheClientService</a><br/><a href="../../../nifi-hazelcast-services-nar/1.19.0/org.apache.nifi.hazelcast.services.cacheclient.HazelcastMapCacheClient/index.html">HazelcastMapCacheClient</a></td><td id="description">The Controller Service that is used to cache release signals in order to release files queued at a corresponding Wait processor</td></tr><tr><td id="name">Attribute Cache Regex</td><td>attribute-cache-regex</td><td></td><td id="allowable-values"></td><td id="description">Any attributes whose names match this regex will be stored in the distributed cache to be copied to any FlowFiles released from a corresponding Wait processor.
