In this chapter, we covered several real-world considerations you need to think about when planning your Flume implementation, including:
Transport time does not always match event time
The mayhem introduced with Daylight Savings Time to certain time-based logic
Capacity planning considerations
Items to consider when you have more than one data center
Data compliance
Data retention and expiration
I hope you enjoyed this book. Hopefully, you will be able to apply much of this information directly in your application/Hadoop integration efforts.
Thanks, this was fun!
