Install the NGINX Agent

You can download the NGINX Agent artifact from WebServerModule/Apache WebServerModule/Nginx sdk_lib/lib/GitHub. For more information about this artifact, see OTel Web Server Module. The NGINX Agent is based on CentOS 7 and contains shared libraries for Apache and NGINX instrumentation. The shared libraries are available at sdk_lib/lib/. The shared libraries are used for both Apache and NGINX instrumentation.

Currently, the NGINX Agent build is based on the x86-64 architecture. Therefore, the artifact should work on any Linux distribution running on the x86-64 platform and having glibc version >= 2.17.

Note: Make sure to deploy the OTEL collector and configure the exporter OTLPHTTP endpoint to the Splunk AppDynamics On-Premises OpenTelemetry ingestion service endpoint. For more details on collector and how to configure it, see Splunk AppDynamics for OpenTelemetry™.
