Heex Kernel is Heex’s core software that runs on your systems. It can run on linux systems (Ubuntu or Debian) or containerized environments (Docker)

Heex Kernel Overhead

The footprint of the Heex Kernel is dependent upon its configuration and the specific data that the Agent is set to transmit. Initially, you can anticipate an average disk space requirement of roughly 128MB.

How does Heex Kernel work ?

At Init, Heex Kernel loads the systemConf.json and waits for connections from your implementations (monitors and recorders). The configuration is sent to your implementations at init and during over the air update.

Upon your monitors signal updates, Heex Kernel evaluates triggers and sends a request to the recorders for the metadata and event recordings. If sucessful, Heex Kernel uploads the metadata and the event recordings on Heex’s Cloud for you to see.
