Data Infrastructure Insights gathers metrics from the node on which you install an agent.

Installation

  1. From Observability > Collectors, choose an operating system/platform. Note that installing any integration data collector (Kubernetes, Docker, Apache, etc.) will also configure node data collection.

  2. Follow the instructions to configure the agent. The instructions vary depending on the type of Operating System or Platform you are using to collect data.
