+### Install Icinga DB Daemon <a id="install-icinga-db-daemon"></a>
+
+After installing Icinga 2, setting up a Redis server and enabling the `icingadb` feature,
+the Icinga DB daemon that synchronizes monitoring data between the Redis server and a database is now set up.

+
+!!! tip
+
+    Although the Icinga DB daemon can run anywhere in an Icinga environment,
+    we recommend to install it where the corresponding Icinga 2 node and Redis server is running to
+    keep latency between the components low.
+
+The Icinga DB daemon package is also included in the Icinga repository, and since it is already set up,
+you have completed the instructions here and can proceed to
