BindPlane OP is an open source observability pipeline that gives you the ability to collect, refine, and ship metrics, logs, and traces to any destination. BindPlane OP provides the controls you need to reduce observability costs and simplify the deployment and management of telemetry agents at scale.
- Manage the lifecycle of telemetry agents, starting with the observIQ Collector
- Build, deploy, and manage telemetry configurations for different Sources and deploy them to your agents
- Ship metric, log, and trace data to one or many Destinations
- Utilize flow controls to adjust the flow of your data in realtime
BindPlane OP is a lightweight web server (no dependencies) that you can deploy anywhere in your environment. It's composed of the following components:
- GraphQL Server: provides configuration and agent details via GraphQL
- REST Server: BindPlane CLI and UI make requests to the server via REST
- WebSocket Server: Agents connect to receive configuration updates via OpAMP
- Store: pluggable storage manages configuration and Agent state
- Manager: dispatches configuration changes to Agents
BindPlane OP does not have any dependencies and can run on Windows, Linux, or macOS although we recommend installing BindPlane OP server one of the following supported Linux distributions:
- Red Hat, Centos, Oracle Linux 7 and 8
- Debian 10 and 11
- Ubuntu LTS 18.04, 20.04
- Suse Linux 12 and 15
- Alma and Rocky Linux

The following are our recommended installation options. For more details on installation, please visit our Getting Started page or Installation page.
To install BindPlane Server, we recommend using our single-line installer. Alternatively, packages are available for download on our releases page.
BindPlane OP Open Source
curl -fsSlL https://github.com/observiq/bindplane-op/releases/latest/download/install-linux.sh | bash -s --BindPlane OP Enterprise
If you have an enterprise license, install with the --enterprise flag.
curl -fsSlL https://github.com/observiq/bindplane-op/releases/latest/download/install-linux.sh | bash -s -- --enterpriseInitialization
After the installer finishes, initialize the server using the init command. The specific command for your system is found in the installer output under the Server Initialization section. By default it is the following command for Linux:
sudo /usr/local/bin/bindplane init server --config /etc/bindplane/config.yamlSee the installation documentation for client install instructions.
BindPlane OP utilizes the observIQ Distro for OpenTelemetry Collector. To install using BindPlane CLI, run the following command on a server or client system to generate the agent install command.
bindplanectl install agentThe generated command can then be copied and run on the agent host. To tailor the install command for a specific operating system, use the --platform flag. Valid values include:
linuxlinux-arm64windowsmacosmacos-amd64
To see additional flags and options for the agent install, use the --help flag.
bindplanectl install agent --helpThe configuration of BindPlane OP is best done through the UI which can be accessed via a web browser on port 3001. The URL will be http://<IP Address>:3001 with IP Address being the IP of the BindPlane server. To log in, use the credentials you specified when running the init command.
For more information on configuration, view our Configuration documentation page.
