Data Collection Architecture
There are two methods MgC uses to collect data about source resources:
- Remote online collection using the MgC Agent
- Online collection using cloud APIs
Remote Online Collection Using the MgC Agent
The MgC Agent, a tool you need to deploy in the source network, collects details about source resources in public clouds, private clouds (built using such as VMware and Hyper-V), on-premises data centers (IDC), or hybrid deployment environments.
Online Collection Using Cloud APIs
MgC calls the APIs of other public clouds to collect details about source resources. The MgC Agent is not required.
