DPOD's Internal services are divided into the following groups:
- Collector Agents – These services collect data (either passively or actively by periodic polling) from monitored DataPower Gateways. The data is then and forwarded to DPOD's Big Data Store storage.
- Database – These services host database services for all the data stored in DPOD, (e.g. raw logs and configuration data). Refer to Components for more detail about the database.
- Other – Services which perform various other tasks.
The following tables list the various DPOD's services and their function

Agents
Service Name | Function |
---|---|
Syslog Agent * | Syslog Agents passively receive raw log records from monitored DataPower Gateways, process them and store them into the Big Data Store. The number of process instances for this agent depends on the installation requirements. |
Syslog Keepalive | The Syslog Keepalive agent monitors the health of a Syslog Agent. The keepalive agent periodically sends syslog records to the syslog agent, which writes those records to the Big Data Store. Note: A successful Keepalive check only means that the syslog agent is functioning properly, and that it can be write data to the Big Data store. |
WS-M Agent * | WS-M Agents passively receive message payload information from monitored DataPower Gateways on which WS-M recording has been enabled. The number of process instances for this agent depends on the installation requirements. |
WS-M Keepalive | The WS-M Keepalive monitors the health of a WS-M Agent, in the same way that the Syslog Keepalive service above works. |
Device Resources Agent | This service periodically polls device resource information from monitored DataPower Gateways. |
Service Resources Agent | This service periodically polls service resource information (e.g memory consumption) and configuration details from monitored DataPower Gateways. |
