Concepts

These pages explain how Axoflow works, and why. To see the path that data takes through the pipeline, start with Processing elements. The other pages explain the features that act on the data along that path:

• Automatic data processing and Classify and reduce security data: how Axoflow identifies, repairs, and reduces your data.
• Normalization: how Axoflow converts the data to the schema of the destination.
• Host attribution and inventory and Policy based routing: how labels about your hosts let you route data by what the source is.
• Reliable transport: how the components of Axoflow send data to each other.

For the components themselves, see Axoflow architecture.
