What is Apache Flume?

Apache Flume is a distributed, reliable, and scalable system for collecting, aggregating, and transporting large-scale log data. It helps users collect a large amount of log data from different data sources to a centralized location for processing and storage, such as collecting log data generated by web servers, databases, and applications to storage systems like Hadoop, HDFS, and Kafka. Apache Flume is based on an event-driven architecture, allowing data collection and transmission based on user-defined rules, supporting a variety of data sources and destinations, and characterized by high reliability, performance, and scalability.
