StackState architecture

An overview of StackState components and integration with external systems.

This page describes StackState version 4.1.

The StackState 4.1 version range is End of Life (EOL) and no longer supported. We encourage customers still running the 4.1 version range to upgrade to a more recent release.

Go to the documentation for the latest StackState release.

Overview

StackState architecture and data flow

Data sources

StackState integrates with external systems to retrieve data. Integrations are set up using StackState Agent, API integration and/or an associated integration StackPack.

StackGraph

StackState configuration and topology data are stored in the StackGraph database.

StackState User Interface and CLI

The StackState User Interface visualizes all collected data in perspectives. You can also customize your instance of StackState here by adding automization steps, such as event handlers and output to external systems.

You can optionally install the StackState CLI to control your StackState instance directly from the command line.
