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 SaaS OpenTelemetry ingestion service endpoint. For more details on collector and how to configure it, see Splunk AppDynamics for OpenTelemetry™.
