Flume supports three MODES of operation: single node, pseudo distributed, and FULLY distributed. Single node is useful for basic testing and getting up and running quickly Pseudo distributed is a more production like ENVIRONMENT that lets us build more complicated FLOWS while testing on a single physical machine Fully distributed is the mode that run in for production. The fully distributed mode offers two further sub modes: a STANDALONE mode with a single master and a distributed mode with multiple masters.
