> To enable NiFi to migrate/move data from RDBMS source tables to other target systems (other RDMBS, HDFS, etc.), one approach is to be able to distribute the fetching of large tables across various tasks/nodes, rather than a single ExecuteSQL processor (which for large tables can run out of memory and get slow).
> The idea would be to generate flow files containing SQL statements that would fetch a portion (or "page") of a table. These flow files can be distributed in NiFi to many ExecuteSQL processors, each of which would grab a page and emit the results. The flow(s) can then continue in parallel/distributed fashion until the data is in the target location(s).
