Components

Overview of the core systems behind Bindplane's architecture, including NATS for messaging, Kubernetes Ingress for routing, and PostgreSQL for stateful storage.

Bindplane Server relies on several key components when deployed on Kubernetes:

Core Components

Event Bus

NATS provides the messaging backbone for Bindplane, enabling reliable communication between server instances and collectors. It handles configuration updates, heartbeats, and telemetry routing.

Kubernetes Ingress

The Ingress controller manages external access to Bindplane services, providing TLS termination, load balancing, and routing capabilities for both the UI and API endpoints.

PostgreSQL

PostgreSQL serves as the primary stateful storage for Bindplane, maintaining configuration data, collector registrations, user information, and audit logs in a reliable and scalable database.

These components work together to provide a resilient, scalable platform for managing your telemetry pipeline. Each can be configured and scaled independently to meet your specific requirements.
