I don't currently know of any plugins that are specifically about pulling data 
in from Windows machines. That being said, only a few of our decoder plugins 
are tied to a specific platform, most should run on Windows w/ no problems. 
What is the specific data that you're trying to process?

Hi there.

I'm anxious to try out Heka at work.  Most of the apps and hosts I would
use it with run Linux, but I was wondering what I would be able to get
by installing Heka on Windows hosts.  Part of what I liked about Heka,
from what I have read so far, is how fast and simple (from a sysadmin
perspective) it is, so I'd hate to diminish its speed and simplicity by
going through too many gymnastics to implement it usefully on Windows.
Looking at the inputs and decoders I don't see how to use Heka to get
Windows data.  (I've never used anything but Splunk to get Windows data
and that was virtually automatic.)

I guess I could leave Heka as an agent/shipper for Linux hosts only and
use nxlog et al. to ship Windows logs to a central Heka node for processing?

Thanks in advance,
Ali
