12.6. Record Update ProcessorsΒΆ

GeoMesa provides processors for record-based updates to existing features (UpdateGeoMesa*Record). Compared to the ingest processors in modify mode, only the fields in the record will be updated, while other fields in the existing feature will be preserved. Record update processors accept the following configuration parameters for specifying the input source. Each datastore-specific processor also has additional parameters for connecting to the datastore, detailed in the following sections.
