# Basic Knowlege

Some Basic Knowlege before getting into the installation

**Docker:**  Docker works as a container. A container is isolated from its OS environment. It has its own software, configuration files, and libraries. So with the uses of the container, Docker is able to run on any environment without having to reinstall. For this whole project, we will use Docker. 

**Telegraf:** is a plugin-driven server agent for collecting and sending metrics and events from databases, systems, and IoT sensors. It is written in Go and compiles into a single binary with no external dependencies which means it can execute on any systems without management tools required.

**InfluxDb** is a time series data. A time series data is a sequence of data points. Typically consisting of successive measurements made from the same source over a time interval.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.aic-eec.com/general/hot-cloud/overview/how-they-work/untitled.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
