-------------------------------------

[~bende],

I would say that a PutTCP would make total sense but I'm not sure to what point 
a PutUDP would be a hard requirement. Scenarios like using NiFi to channel data 
to legacy Syslog based systems like Arcsight or Splunk would work perfectly 
well with a TCP Output. 

Frequently people want to be able to have non blocking ingestion mechanisms to 
end point (e.g. UDP syslog fire and forget approach) but I confess struggle to 
imagine why would someone want to mix a loss tolerant pipeline with a fire and 
forget UDP output.
