Kafka is written in Scala, which means it runs on the JVM, so you can effectively run on any OS that supports the JVM. However, the brokers extract a huge performance boost by using the OS s kernel buffer cache. Im not sure how good this is with a non-unix system like Windows. The kafka source code base provides first class support for Scala and Java Clients . You could also find producer and consumer clients in languages like Php,C++, python etc under the contrib directory.
