Hortonworks to Acquire Onyara: It’s all about The Internet of Anything! [Hortonworks blog]

Creating a new Hortonworks DataFlow platform

"Onyara is the leading contributor to the Apache NiFi project, which is now a top-level project at Apache Software Foundation (ASF). Onyara was formed around the technology in Dec 2014. Engineers and technologists at Onyara are key contributors to Apache NiFi developed over the last 8 years.

Previously called “Niagara Files” at the National Security Agency (NSA), the project has been proven at scale in production. NiFi was open sourced as Apache NiFi as part of the NSA Technology Transfer Program in the fall of 2014. Subsequently, it became a top-level Apache project in July 2015.

Apache NiFi is a secure and reliable data flow solution for IoAT. It delivers high quality real time and trusted data flows and is proven at scale. The Onyara team share’s Hortonworks’ vision for 100% community driven open source and is a great extension to the industry’s best Hadoop distro: Hortonworks Data Platform. Not only Apache NiFi complements HDP, it also accelerates flow of data in motion the into HDP for full fidelity analytics"
