Install Nodinite Configuration Database
The Nodinite Configuration Database is the central metadata repository for your integration monitoring platform. It stores monitoring configurations, resource definitions, alert rules, user permissions, and historical metrics—enabling enterprise-grade visibility across all integration endpoints.
Understanding the Configuration Database
The Configuration Database serves as the single source of truth for your Nodinite deployment:
- Centralized Configuration — All monitoring agents, log agents, and web clients read their settings from this database, ensuring consistency across distributed environments
- Metadata Repository — Stores integration resource definitions (APIs, message queues, databases, file systems), monitoring thresholds, correlation rules, and business context
- Security and Permissions — Manages user access, role-based permissions, and audit trails for compliance (SOX, HIPAA, GDPR)
- Historical Metrics — Tracks monitoring state changes, performance trends, and system health over time for capacity planning and SLA reporting
You install the Nodinite Configuration Database as an essential part of the Nodinite Core Services package. The installation process creates the SQL Server database schema, applies security best practices, and configures connection strings for all Nodinite components.
