Setting up the Cloudera DataFlow service

In the Business Intelligence at Scale pattern, Cloudera DataFlow (CDF) provides basic flow development and streaming data flow organization and management capabilities.

To set up a CDF cluster, a user with the PowerUser role must first grant you the DFAdmin role. You can then enable the CDF service in your CDP environment.

For the Business Intelligence at Scale pattern, you will be using the "Kafka to Avro S3" ReadyFlow flow definition.

For more information about the CDF service, see the Cloudera DataFlow documentation.
