`class` is the name of the WMI class, for example `Win32_OperatingSystem` or `Win32_PerfFormattedData_PerfProc_Process`. You can find many of the standard class names on the [MSDN docs](http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa394084.aspx).

`filters` is a list of filters on the WMI query you may want. For example, for a process-based WMI class you may want metrics for only certain processes running on your machine, so you could add a filter for each process name. You can also use the '%' character as a wildcard.

`tag_by` optionally lets you tag each metric with a property from the WMI class you're using. This is only useful when you will have multiple values for your WMI query. The examples below show how you can tag your process metrics with the process name (giving a tag of "name:app_name").
