Gateways and BindPlane

Sep 21, 2023 By Dylan Myers In ObservIQ
The BindPlane Agent is a flexible tool that can be run as an agent, an aggregator, or both. As an agent the collector will be running on the same host it's collecting telemetry from, while an aggregator will collect telemetry from other agents and forward the data on to their final destination. Here are a few of the reasons you might want to consider inserting Aggregators into your pipelines: Today we will examine these reasons, and some possible architectures for implementing aggregators.
