My experience with Flume has been very positive, we have a tool (Orion Context Broker based on NGSI-LD) that collects all the information and is distributed through Flume to different sinks. Its configuration files are very intuitive, and data is sent immediately, without loss of information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Logically, its configuration files are simple as long as you have high technical knowledge, since you need to configure environment variables, and concepts such as ports, addresses, buffer, etc. It must be familiar to you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing about apache flume is, using flume, it is very easy to interpret the log data in near real-time, and also it supports data collection from variety of data sources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What I don't like about Apache flume is it is not as reliable as Apache Kafka. if any message is missed due to any issue, then it is not able to get the message Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It was one of the key component in Big data era, and best fit for both batch and stream processing applications. On a personal note it was good fit for simple transformations on data while streaming from source to sink and truly high reliable component. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The option to get the data into pipeline. Although we have used for a small amount of data. For bigger we have kafka thing.
