Nifi.rocks, part of Zobier Labs LLC, is a small business located in Maryland, just outside of the DC/Baltimore metro area. Founded by Chad Zobrisky and Phllip Grenier, the two support businesses in their use of Apache Nifi.

We created nifi.rocks as a place to share information and knowledge about Apache NiFi. Apache NiFi is an ETL, Extract, Transform, and Load, framework built around the flow based programming (FBP) paradigm. If you aren’t familiar with FBP, it is a programming concept of a set of processes that exchange data over predefined paths to achieve a larger goal in an application. Flow based programming allows for modularization of the code beyond interfaces and allows processing units to be reused and reassembled to achieve whatever goal you have in mind. It is a pretty cool idea and takes code reausability to a new level.

Apache Nifi graduated from Apache Software Foundation incubator program in July of 2015 and has grown to be an extremely active project with support from a large group of users ranging from small businesses to large corporations. We hope you continue to watch the project and grow with us here at Nifi.rocks.
