Hi,

We are trying to replace our existing oozie workflows with falcon. But then we are facing few issues with falcon which is a roadblock for us to move from Oozie to Falcon. Apart from that Falcon has everything which a Oozie can do. Here are few of our findings:
1. In Oozie workflows we call a shell script and with the values we get from our scripts (like timestamp, date, latest folder, partition and many more) we retrieve those values using ${wf:actionData('<SCRIPT NAME>')['<VALUE ECHOED FROM SHELL SCRIPT>']} command and then pass them to subsequent pig scripts or hive or MRs. 
2. Please bring in different actions in Falcon for mailing and more features in Oozie so that Falcon can completely replace Oozie.
