TARZAN.NFX is a distributed network forensics platform that aims to provide common functionality expected from a modern network forensic tool. The platform employs a distributed architecture that enables scaling and extensibility. The following technologies form the basic environment for implementation of the TARZAN.NFX:

• Apache Ignite -- provides the environment for caching datasets and performing distributed computations mainly when collocation of data and computation is possible.

• Apache Spark -- provides a scalable data processing engine suitable for specific types of operations.

• Apache Flink -- real-time processing engine used for input stream processing.

• Cassandra -- provides persistence layer for data in rest.

The structure of the solution is organized in the following top level folders:

• src - Main projects (the product code)
• tests - Test projects
• docs - Documentation stuff, markdown files, help files etc.
• samples (optional) - Sample projects
• lib - Things that can NEVER exist in a nuget package
• artifacts - Build outputs go here. Doing a build.cmd/build.sh generates artifacts here (nupkgs, dlls, pdbs, etc.)
• packages - NuGet packages
• build - Build customizations (custom msbuild files) scripts

Currently, building the solution means just to run dotnet build Tarzan.sln. By executing scripts build.cmd or build.sh the solution is compiled and binary files are copied to artifacts.
