Traceable's Platform agent is an agent that receives various information from different Tracing agents. The Platform agent is deployed between a Tracing agent and the Traceable Platform and works to collect data. It also works to classify data and redact it. The Platform agent makes sure that no sensitive information reaches the Traceable Platform. The Platform agent receives the blocking rule information from the Traceable Platform and further sends it to the instrumentation agent. Traceable components are typically deployed to their own namespace within a cluster. You can choose installation from the following methods:
