Consolidation in flume

  • Consolidation in flume its collect data from different sources even it’s different flume Agents.
  • Flume source can collect all data flow from different sources and flows through channel and sink. Finally send this data to HDFS or target destination.

Channel Selectors

    • Channel selectors control and dividing the events and allocating a specific channel. They are default or replicated channel selectors.
Apache Flume Features
  • Replicated channel selectors can duplicate the information in multiple or all channels. Multiplexing channel selectors used to divide and aggregate the data based on the events header data.
  • It means based on sinks destination, the event aggregate into the specific sink.
  • Example: One sink associated with hadoop, another with S3 another with Hbase, at that time, Multiplexing channel selectors can divide the events and flow to the specific sink.

  • Overview and Architecture, a source can write at least with one or more channels.
  • This is reason the property is plural channels instead of channel.
  • There are two ways multiple channels can be handled. The event can be written to every channel or to only one channel, based on some Flume header value.
  • The internal mechanism for this in Flume is known as channel selector.
  • The selector for any channel can be determined using the selector.type property.

All selector-specific properties start with the typical Source prefix: the agent name, keyword sources, and source name:

agent.sources.s1.selector.type=replicating
