Supported Sources

Kloudfuse collects telemetry through a set of agents and gateways. This page lists the products and systems you can monitor, the signal types available for each, and the agent or method used to collect them.

Infrastructure Platforms

Each row lists the telemetry types available per agent. Where agents differ in what they collect for the same product, the Agent / Method column breaks this down explicitly.
