How the agent worksCopy
Once installed on your private infrastructure, Tray's on-prem agent creates a secure connection with Tray which allows Tray's connectors to communicate directly with your key services and databases.
With a single agent, you have the ability to configure your connectors to interact with your resources through a secure connection and the agent will seamlessly redirect requests automatically.
A key benefit of the on-prem agent is that the connector nodes inside the Tray On-Prem Network are dedicated resources and not shared with other users.
When using the on-prem agent you do not need to open up your services to the internet - Tray authentications for your on-prem services can make use of your internal private IP address and port / proxy configurations, and you can shut down access to your public IP.
For load-balancing and high availability, agents can be installed in groups.
OS SupportCopy
The on-prem agent runs on Linux and Windows (64-bit Intel / AMD and ARM)
The agent can be run on your own hardware or on any public cloud platform - AWS, Azure, GCP etc. and will run on any virtual or physical machine running any of the above OSes.
