ust when you thought everything was better. Kubernetes orchestration was supposed to be the answer to the application resource nightmare, but it hasn’t worked out that way. Even more visibility challenges, constantly changing applications, and super-frequent update schedules all contribute to a miserable time monitoring application performance in orchestrated environments. But all is not lost – there is a way to effectively manage the performance of orchestrated, containerized applications. It’s more than just newer monitoring agents – it’s a whole new monitoring attitude, and it begins with complete automation. Join our live webinar to learn the absolute necessities when it comes to monitoring these critical orchestrated applications

3. Containers Increases the Complexity
Monitoring containerized apps requires:
• Monitoring each and every container
• Identify the technologies operating within
each container
• Map and monitor applications running
across the entire system
There are more parts!
But this is still software running on a servers.

5. Application Visibility and Performance Monitoring Requirements of K8s
• What ARE the services?
• Where are they?
• How are requests flowing between them?
• Are all of the desired replicas running?
• If the deployment failed, why?
• Was there a performance regression?
• Where are the errors coming from?
• Are there performance optimization
opportunities?Host
