# Overview

> Odigos Central is the centralized deployment mode of Odigos, allowing organizations to manage observability configurations from a single UI across multiple Kubernetes clusters.

<Note>
  This feature is available in Odigos Enterprise tier only. Please contact the
  Odigos team to inquire about access to the Enterprise version.
</Note>

Odigos Central is a centralized management layer for multi-cluster observability. Instead of configuring instrumentation, sampling rules, and destinations separately in each Kubernetes cluster, Odigos Central provides a **single pane of glass** to manage all your clusters from one place.

## Why Use Odigos Central?

* **Unified Management** - Configure instrumentation, sampling rules, and observability pipelines across all clusters from a single UI
* **Reduced Operational Overhead** - No need to SSH or `kubectl` into each cluster separately
* **Centralized Access Control** - Manage user authentication and authorization with support for SSO providers like Okta
* **Consistent Configuration** - Apply the same sampling and instrumentation rules uniformly across environments
* **Audit and Compliance** - Single point of control for observability configuration changes
