From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Wazuh, the software I specifically called out. Is not "cloud". They offer a cloud service, yes (that's how they make money, on lazy admins or orgs that are too small to house their own infra). But it is self-hosted and designed to be run within the network.
You clearly have no idea what the current security market looks like. Nor what half of the terms you use actually mean.
Edit: Forgot to address this too
No. The agent can be installed on ANY system. They recommend you install the orchestration/control node virtualized, which you don't have to do. You can install it on a raw system though that would be a huge waste of resources. You seem to have missed that.
