[jira] [Created] (METRON-544) Add an integrity checking field for large values

Jon Zeolla created METRON-544:
---------------------------------

             Summary: Add an integrity checking field for large values
                 Key: METRON-544
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-544
             Project: Metron
          Issue Type: Sub-task
            Reporter: Jon Zeolla
            Priority: Minor


If a value is > 32766 long, add an integrity checking field using a hash such as SHA3-256.  This provides a method to both validate and compare the data against another store without a 32k limitation.  For instance, if the field is "uri", add a key of "uri_hash" and a value of the hash of the original field's value.  

Where this should be added is up for debate - I would initially suggest putting it upstream of the indexingBolt in the indexing topology (as a splitter), but I could see some arguments for putting it in the indexingBolt, or somewhere in the enrichments topology.
