Fwd: Re: ASterixDB on Windows

[Michael Carey <mj...@ics.uci.edu>]

I wonder if we need to somehow steer users to one of the available 
packages - right now I'm not sure a user would know which one to pick / 
why?  (E.g., should we make the NCService one special by adding " 
(recommended)" after it?

Hi Gharib,
If you download the "asterix-server" package from the main apache site
(https://asterixdb.apache.org), and follow the Quick Start
instructions for NCService, while replacing *.sh scripts with their
*.bat equivalents, it should just work on windows at this point.
