Collocated Inference Agents and Dynamic Query Agent Sessions

Depending on the need, it can be useful to deploy an inference agent in the same processing unit (node) as the query agent. Another way to integrate query and inference functionality is to dynamically start a collocated query agent session from an inference agent.

Query agent and inference agent functionality is complementary. You can work with these two agent types in different ways.

  • Collocated Query and Inference Agents
    The inference agent can process and enrich the event data, create concepts, modify concepts, and so on. The query agent can send events to the inference agent using a local channel.
  • Dynamic Query Agent Sessions
    You can dynamically start a collocated query agent session from an inference agent and make queries, using startup and preprocessor rule functions.
