The Tetra OpenLab Agent is an on-premises, Windows-based data integration that pulls data from Agilent OpenLab CDS and uploads it to the Tetra Data Platform (TDP). The integration can help scientists quickly process, analyze, and cross-reference chromatography data from Agilent OpenLab CDS through Tetra Data Apps, such as Chromatography Insights. The data can then also be processed by a pipeline, translated into a Tetra Data model, and integrated with other systems.

The Agent can run locally or in the cloud, and either send data directly to the TDP, or through an on-premises Tetra Hub. For more information, see Agent Deployment Options.
