InsightFinder agents can be used to monitor system performance on bare-metal machines, virtual machines and for Docker containers.

The following types of agents are available:

• cAdvisor
• cgroup (Linux control groups)
• collectd (requires collectd agent)
• daemonset
• DataDog
• Docker Remote API
• Elasticsearch/ELK
• hypervisor (VMware)
• Jolokia
• Kafka (storage adapter)
• KVM
• Log File Replay
• Metric File Replay
• /proc
• Splunk
• syscall
• td-agent (Log Streaming)
• insightfinder-statsd-backend(statsD)

cAdvisor agent is used to monitor system metrics of Docker containers using the cAdvisor Docker container.

InsightFinder's Splunk integration allows your Splunk installation to share data with an InsightFinder server for analysis, which returns anomaly detection results to your Splunk dashboard. This integration does not require installation of an Insight Agent and instead deploys as a Splunk "App", which is available in Splunkbase.

The syscall agent monitors your Linux kernel for anomalies in the frequency and or performance of syscalls and patterns of syscalls called "signatures". This agent relies on an integration with the Linux Trace Toolkit: next generation (http://lttng.org).
