Vectrail 2.0: How It Works
& Deployment Guide
Vectrail is designed for mid-enterprise environments where data privacy is paramount. We ship a deployment story, not just software.
1. High-Level Architecture (Client View)
Edge Layer
Runs inside Customer Environment
- vectrail-agent (Docker container)
- Native connection to PSQL / MySQL / APIs
- Deterministic metric computation
- Insight compression & HMAC signing
- Never transmits raw records or PII
Secure Cloud Layer
Vectrail Control Plane
- HMAC signature validation
- Multi-tenant isolation & encryption
- 6-Stage AI Reasoning Engine
- Executive Briefing generation
- Optional: Partial or Full VPC deployment
Visual breakdown of the secure data relay. Real data never crosses the boundary; only compressed, signed signals.
Data Boundary Guarantee
Security isn't a feature; it's our foundation. We provide ironclad guarantees for enterprise trust:
Zero Raw Exposure
Individual database records never leave your infrastructure. Only aggregated metrics and pattern summaries are sent to the cloud.
Cryptographic Integrity
All payloads are HMAC-SHA256 signed. The control plane rejects any packet not originated from your authenticated local agent.
Protection Levels
L1Basic Protection
- • TypeScript compiled to production JS
- • Source maps disabled (no source leak)
- • Production-only dependency tree
L2Obfuscated Build (Enterprise)
Standard for all Docker-based deployments.
- • Advanced JS Obfuscation: Flattened control flow & variable renaming
- • Self-Defending Code: Antitamper logic embedded in binaries
- • Compact & Minified: Optimized for edge performance
2. Deployment Models
Standard Hybrid
RecommendedThe fastest way to get started. Low maintenance, high security.
VPC Deployment
CustomEnsures no data ever hits our public endpoints. Fully isolated.
Full Private
Enterprise TierAir-gapped compatible path for specific use cases.
3. Installation Guide (Hybrid Mode)
Prerequisites
Pull Agent Image
docker pull vectrail/agent:2.0.0
Create Configuration File
agent.config.json
Run Agent
Ongoing Operations
Health Monitoring
docker logs -f vectrail-agent
GET /health (Agent Port 8080)
Secret Rotation
Admin Dashboard → Security → Rotate Sync Secret. The agent auto-refreshes on the next heartbeat.
Troubleshooting
- • Invalid HMAC: Check secret key
- • Version Rejected: Upgrade agent
- • Auth Error: Database firewall
