Entire Flow KPIs expose the metrics that NiFi provides for the entire data flow.
Choosing Entire Flow enables you to set alerts based on any of the flow
metrics that the data flow monitors.
- Metric name: Data In
- Metric unit: Bytes/sec
- Meaning: How much data did the entire flow receive from external systems per second?
- Threshold: Upper and lower boundary
- Expected behavior: Sends a notification when the aggregated data received for the entire
flow is either below the specified lower threshold or above the upper threshold for the given
time period.
- Metric name: Data Out
- Metric unit: Bytes/sec
- Meaning: How much data did the entire flow send to external systems per second?
- Threshold: Upper and lower boundary
- Expected behavior: Sends a notification when the aggregated data sent for the entire flow is
either below the specified lower threshold or above the upper threshold for the given time
period.
