Cygnus is a data connector within FIWARE platform allowing for Orion context data persistence in an historical way in several different storages such as HDFS, MySQL or CKAN. Cygnus characteristics are:
- It is based in Apache Flume, expanding the core elements with custom sinks, http handlers, channel selectors and interceptors among others.
- Smart destination (HDFS file, MySQL table or CKAN resource) extraction based on data properties.
- Automatic Hive tables creation when using HDFS sinks.
- Support for multiple persistence models (json-row, json-column, ...)
