Reference Manual - Deployment

This section provides detailed instructions for deploying Wazuh-Docker (version 4.14.1) in various configurations. Choose the deployment model that best suits your needs, from simple single-node setups for testing to more robust multi-node configurations for production environments.

Overview of Deployment Options

Wazuh-Docker offers flexibility in how you can deploy the Wazuh stack. The primary methods covered in this documentation are:

  1. Single Node Wazuh Stack:

    • Description: Deploys all core Wazuh components (Wazuh manager, Wazuh indexer, Wazuh dashboard) as Docker containers on a single host machine.
    • Use Cases: Ideal for development, testing, demonstrations, proof-of-concepts, and small-scale production environments where simplicity is prioritized and high availability is not a critical concern.
    • Pros: Easiest and quickest to set up.
    • Cons: Single point of failure; limited scalability compared to multi-node.

  2. Multi Node Wazuh Stack:

    • Description: This typically refers to deploying a Wazuh Indexer cluster and potentially multiple Wazuh managers for improved scalability and resilience. While true multi-host orchestration often uses tools like Kubernetes, this section may cover configurations achievable with Docker Compose, possibly across multiple Docker hosts or with clustered services on a single powerful host.
    • Use Cases: Production environments requiring higher availability, data redundancy (for Wazuh Indexer), and the ability to handle a larger number of agents.
    • Pros: Improved fault tolerance (for clustered components like the Indexer), better performance distribution.
    • Cons: More complex to set up and manage than a single-node deployment.

Before You Begin Deployment

Ensure you have:

  • Met all the System Requirements.
  • Installed Docker and Docker Compose on your host(s).
  • Cloned the wazuh-docker repository (version 4.14.1) or downloaded the necessary deployment files. 
    git clone [https://github.com/wazuh/wazuh-docker.git](https://github.com/wazuh/wazuh-docker.git)
cd wazuh-docker
git checkout v4.14.1
  • Made a backup of any existing Wazuh data if you are migrating or upgrading.

Choosing the Right Deployment

Consider the following factors when choosing a deployment model:

  • Scale: How many agents do you plan to connect?
  • Availability: What are your uptime requirements?
  • Resources: What hardware resources (CPU, RAM, disk) are available?
  • Complexity: What is your team's familiarity with Docker and distributed systems?

For most new users, starting with the Single Node Wazuh Stack is recommended to familiarize themselves with Wazuh-Docker. You can then explore more complex setups as your needs grow.
