Infrastructure Agent Prerequisites

Kabeen is a SaaS platform that analyzes your information system data through an infrastructure agent named Kapsul.

The Kapsul infrastructure agent must be deployed on each infrastructure server to collect its configuration and metrics.

Installing an agent on each server allows retrieving all inventory information using the agent's local rights (SYSTEM user). No remote credentials or access keys need to be stored.

Infrastructure Agent Prerequisites

Kapsul can be installed on the following platforms:

• Windows Server (.exe package)
• Debian and Ubuntu (.deb package)
• RedHat and CentOS (.rpm package)

External Communications

The Kapsul infrastructure agent transmits collected metrics and data to the Kabeen platform through a TLS-secured channel. This channel is initiated by the agent so that only outbound HTTPS communication is required.

Both types of exchanges between Kapsul and Kabeen are managed in the same channel:

Once communication is established between the infrastructure agent and Kabeen, the agent is visible in Kabeen under the Infrastructure menu then Servers, and an availability indicator allows monitoring data reception.
