> Instrumenting application servers/devices with (Mi)NiFi agents gives ops teams the ability to add arbitrary system check and metrics.
> NiFi proper's ExecuteProcess lets you use the wide variety of existing Linux tools and data gatherers, but MiNiFi-cpp lacks this today. Thus servers/containers need to be configured during build time (for example: https://github.com/randerzander/TechOps/blob/master/containers/base/scripts/nmon.sh), which is tedious and error prone compared to being able to have the MiNiFi agent invoke processes at will.
> ExecuteProcess in MiNiFi-cpp would significantly improve the value of the agent for server/container instrumentation.
