Installing

Dflux can be installed as an on prem installation (bare metal) or as a docker container.

Dflux focuses on four pillars

1. Developer friendly - Rapid development, Fast specification coverage

2. Observability - Reduce troubleshooting time

3. Performance and Efficiency - Provide good performance for both control plane and data plane

4. Stability - Dflux functions should be highly available and stable as possible
