[rsyslog] does rsyslog supports data analytic

[Josh Zhao]

Thanks for David and Rainer's reply.I m sorry that I did not explain my
question clearly.I m new to rsyslog and want to add a processing module in
rsyslog.The rsyslog has input plugins(front-end) and output
plugins(back-end).My processing module receives data from input plugins and
output the processed data and raw data both into output plugins.So how I add
it?
