How to send data from Apache NIFI to HANA

NIFI is a great apache web based tool, for routing and transformation of data. Kind of an ETL tool. In my scenario, I am trying to fetch tweets from the Tweeter API, and after that, I wanted to save them to hadoop, but also, filter them and save them to HANA for doing Sentiment Analysis

My first idea was to save them to hadoop, and then fetch them to HANA, but after discovering NIFI, it was obvious that the best solution was to fetch the tweet, then format the json file, and then insert it on HANA.

Why nifi? the answer is simple, it is very intuitive and simple to use. Also very simple to install, and it is already integrated with twitter, hadoop, and JDBC. So it was the obvious choose for my idea.-
