The Honeycomb Pipeline Manager is composed of the following components:

* **GraphQL Server**: Provides configuration and agent details via GraphQL
* **REST Server**: The Honeycomb Telemetry Pipeline CLI and UI make requests to the server via REST
* **WebSocket Server**: Agents connect to receive configuration updates via [OpAMP](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opamp-spec)
* **Store**: Pluggable storage manages configuration and Agent state
* **Manager**: Dispatches configuration changes to Agents
