The high-level architecture looks like this:

- Cloud. Red’s Secured Ingress carries traffic to both Cloud.Red Management Services and Cloud.Red Observability services.
- Cloud.Red Management Services is where the Cloud.Red on-premises virtual machine will phone home to use its API for features such as Backups, command, control, etc.
- Customer Blob Storage are optional supported blob stores, maintained by the customer, for remote storage of data, such as UCS backups, etc. (advanced option, please discuss with WTIT engineering)
Cloud.Red Observability Services is where the Cloud.Red on-premises virtual machine will phone home to push data received from your managed hosts. Additionally, Cloud.Red Management Services pushes data, such as logging, to Cloud.Red Observability Services.
https://portal.cloud.red is where users, per their permissions, can interact with Cloud.Red Management Services and Cloud.Red Observability Services.
