Yohann commented on NIFI-1502:
------------------------------

[~bryanrosan...@gmail.com], you're right, I think that this architecture should 
works *if NiFi is installed on a Windows Server* with a Windows Event Collector 
configured.

However, Apache Metron ([with Nifi 
embedded|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/METRON/Metron+Architecture])
 doesn't run on Windows. (and it would be great to not have to install a 
dedicated windows server just for this purpose)

So, I think (_as a user of Apache Metron_) that the "option B" should be also 
implemented (in a future release).  Of course, I would be happy to help as I 
can on this feature.

Could I open a new ticket for the "option B" ?

> While a lot of the use cases using NiFi orbit the IoT, Unix Cloud type 
> workloads, I suspect NiFi would be a great fit for data collections of 
> business critical platforms running Windows.
> A good example of this type of workload would be ATMs running Windows 7 and 
> even run Windows XP, or collection of Event Log error events on Windows 
> platforms (including Azure).
