Welcome to the Stackrox Collector project documentation. Here you can learn more about idea behind the project, how to start guidelines, design overview and detailed references.
Collector is a component of Stackrox responsible for gathering runtime data. In a few words it is an agent that runs on every node under strict performance limitations and gathers the data via kernel modules or eBPF probes (the default collection mode nowadays). To implement eBPF probes and collect data, the project leverages the Falco libraries via a custom fork.
