Zookeeper recommendation for clustered Nifi

Question

What's the general recommendation for running Zookeeper in a clustered NiFi? Use the embedded or external Zookeeper? Starting from scratch so no existing Zookeeper running....

Answer 1

The embedded ZooKeeper provided with Apache NiFi is for ease of use getting started and can be used for some light use cases, but for a serious production flow with a high volume of data, you should use an external ZooKeeper.
