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
