Platform Support Policy
The Sematext Agent is designed for compatibility across all major GNU/Linux distributions, Windows platforms, and more. Our commitment extends to providing support throughout the entire lifecycle of these distros and platforms. Additionally, we offer support for Kubernetes environments and containerized installations.
If a specific version is not listed below, Sematext Agent is still very likely to run, and we encourage you to explore its functionality on those versions.
Linux¶
| Distro | Supported Versions (64-bit only) |
|---|---|
| Ubuntu | 18.04 20.04 22.04 23.10 24.04 |
| Debian | 10 11 12 |
| CentOS | 7 |
| CentOS Stream | 8 9 |
| Red Hat Enterprise Linux | 7 8 9 |
| Amazon Linux | 2 2023 |
| Fedora Linux | 37 38 39 40 |
| openSUSE | 15.4 15.5 |
Note: We utilize eBPF technology for various functionality such as log discovery, service discovery, and system metrics collection. Please note that eBPF functionality requires a minimum Linux kernel version of 4.4.3. If your kernel version is lower than 4.4.3, the Sematext Agent will still function using fallbacks. However, we strongly recommend using a host with eBPF enabled for optimal performance.
