Infrastructure Documentation

Kolide is an infrastructure instrumentation application which has it's own infrastructure dependencies and requirements. The infrastructure documentation contains documents on the following topics:

Deploying and configuring osquery

• For information on installing osquery on hosts that you own, see our Adding Hosts To Kolide document, which compliments existing osquery documentation.
• To add hosts to Kolide, you will need to provide a minimum set of configuration to the osquery agent on each host. These configurations are defined in the aforementioned Adding Hosts To Kolide document. If you'd like to further customize the osquery configurations and options, this can be done via the Kolide application UI. You can find more documentation on this feature in the application documentation for this feature.
• To manage osquery configurations at your organization, we strongly suggest using some form of configuration management tooling. For more information on configuration management, see the Managing Osquery Configurations document.
