Ensuring uninterrupted collector operation

An uninterrupted event stream from the event source to KUMA is important for protecting the network infrastructure. Continuity can be ensured though automatic forwarding of the event stream to a larger number of collectors:

  • On the KUMA side, two or more identical collectors must be installed.
  • On the event source side, you must configure control of event streams between collectors using third-party server load management tools, such as rsyslog or nginx.

With this configuration of the collectors in place, no incoming events will be lost if the collector server is unavailable for any reason.

Please keep in mind that when the event stream switches between collectors, each collector will aggregate events separately.
