[jira] [Created] (NIFI-4199) NiFi processors should be able to share proxy settings

Andre F de Miranda created NIFI-4199:
----------------------------------------

             Summary: NiFi processors should be able to share proxy settings
                 Key: NIFI-4199
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4199
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Andre F de Miranda


Currently, configuring proxy settings for NiFi processors may be a tedious process that requires the DFM to set proxy settings on individual processors. 

This leads to:

* Duplication of work
* Management overhead (as password must be changed on multiple locations)
* Lower security (as proxy credentials must be known by "n" DFMs)

Ideally, NiFi should offer a way to minimise duplication of work by offering a something similar to the Standard SSL Context services. This way, the DFM could set the proxy settings once an all authorised users could tap into those settings.
