NGINX

NGINX sits at the edge of a Datasentinel deployment and acts as a reverse proxy. All inbound HTTPS traffic terminates at NGINX before being forwarded to the internal Datasentinel services.

Run all commands as root.

Installation

// RHEL / AlmaLinux / Rocky / CentOS Stream (DNF)
dnf install nginx -y
systemctl enable --now nginx

Datasentinel & NGINX

Datasentinel’s interactive installer expects NGINX to be present and running.

When you execute init_datasentinel.sh, it will :

• Verify that NGINX is installed.

• Drop a fully‑formed reverse‑proxy definition at /etc/nginx/nginx.conf and /etc/nginx/conf.d/datasentinel.conf

• Restart NGINX service so the changes are live.
