EDB Postgres AI Estate: Agent

To monitor your self-managed Postgres database with the Agent, you will need to:

  • Create a machine user in the EDB Postgres® AI Console. This provides an access key for the agent.
  • Install the Agent on the server where your Postgres instance is running. You will use the access key to enable the agent to communicate with the EDB Postgres AI Estate service.
  • Run the Agent as a service to have it start automatically on system startup and restart after errors.
