Regulated industries — finance, healthcare, government — and security-sensitive organizations often cannot send data outside their own infrastructure and cannot install software from the internet. In these environments, routing logs and telemetry through a cloud service is not an option, and internet connectivity may be restricted or entirely unavailable.
Axoflow supports fully on-premises deployments, when the AxoConsole, AxoRouter nodes, and Axoflow agent agents all run inside your own datacenter. No data reaches external infrastructure, and the AxoConsole that manages the entire pipeline is also hosted on your own hardware. Air-gapped environments with no internet access are supported.
This approach gives you:
- Data sovereignty: all security data stays within your infrastructure. No component in the pipeline requires connectivity to Axoflow’s cloud services.
- Air-gapped support: you can deploy and operate Axoflow in environments with no internet access.
- Single management plane: the on-premises AxoConsole configures and monitors all Axoflow agent agents and AxoRouter nodes, giving you the same visibility and control as the SaaS offering.
- Local aggregation: AxoRouters filter, enrich, and reduce data before it moves between segments of your network, minimizing internal traffic.
- Reliable transport: Axoflow uses the OpenTelemetry protocol (OTLP) between Axoflow agent and AxoRouter, so no messages are lost even under network instability.
- Unified metrics: every agent and router emits detailed per-component metrics, giving you end-to-end visibility into your data pipeline without leaving your perimeter.
