Configuring Riverbed Edge and Associated Data Sources

Riverbed Edge provides connectivity to Riverbed Data Store for supported data sources A product in your network that forwards data to the system. This data can be streaming data used to detect anomalies and generate incidents, or data that can be fetched on demand when runbooks are executed.. These data sources:

1. Are network monitoring applications embedded in a customer environment. For instance, Riverbed Technology's NPM Data Sources (e.g. NetIM, NetProfiler, and AppResponse).

2. Contribute observability data to Riverbed Data Store to support advanced processing capabilities such as analytics, automation, or multi-modal AI. The data sources send observability data through Riverbed Edge which manages those data source connections into Riverbed Data Store.

Each data source supported by Edge must be configured to communicate with a Edge instance for the data source to enter into the Riverbed Data Store. Each Edge can support multiple associated data sources.
