OpenShift Commons Briefing #61: Best Practices for Monitoring OpenShift with Apurva Davé (SysDig)

OpenShift Commons Briefing Summary

In this briefing, Apurva Davé of Sysdig gave a great demo-rich presentation on best practices for monitoring containers running in Kubernetes clusters on OpenShift.

Pushing Docker and OpenShift-based applications into production will radically change the way you monitor and troubleshoot your environment. Sysdig’s Apurva Davé reviews the challenges of this new infrastructure and gave a number excellent examples of monitoring and troubleshooting docker for optimal efficiency. During this briefing we covered:

• How should you monitor services built on top of containers?
• What metrics become more relevant in docker-based environments?
• How do you construct alerts most effectively?
• How do you troubleshoot containers that are rapidly coming and going?

The briefing focused on demonstrating both open source and commercial tools that can help you solve these new challenges.
