Abstract

An illustrative method for operating software agent deployed within a compute environment may include directing the software agent to collect and transmit, to a data platform, a first type of workload data associated with one or more workloads deployed within the compute environment, detecting, while the software agent is operating to collect and transmit the first type of workload data, a request for the software agent to collect a second type of workload data associated with the one or more workloads, and directing, based on the request and without modifying executable code of the software agent, the software agent to collect and transmit, to the data platform, the second type of workload data.
