    Container monitoring: Everything at a glance, from Kubernetes to Docker

    Containers: The new era in IT monitoring

    Container technology is fundamentally changing the IT world—much like the introduction of hardware virtualization. But monitoring containers is complex: The environments are dynamic, fast-moving and pose new challenges for traditional monitoring tools.

    In our video, Alexander Wiedenbruch answers the three most important questions about container monitoring:

    • What exactly are IT containers?
    • Why are containers currently so relevant?
    • What are the particular challenges of container monitoring?
    Video interview with USU IT monitoring expert Alexander Wiedenbruch on the topic of container monitoring. He explains the three most important questions about monitoring container technologies - one of the biggest IT innovations since the introduction of virtual machines. The video highlights the challenges of dynamic container environments and why conventional monitoring tools are often no longer sufficient.

    Efficient container monitoring with auto-discovery

    Our monitoring solution integrates directly into leading orchestration tools such as Kubernetes and OpenShift. Thanks to auto-discovery, new containers, pods and nodes in your environment—whether in the cloud or on-premises—are automatically detected and monitored. This allows you to keep an eye on the status and availability of your container environments in real time at all times.

    Performance monitoring for Docker environments

    Monitor all critical performance indicators of your Docker environment—from CPU utilization and memory usage to disk capacity and network IO. Our solution provides you with the information you need to optimally manage the resource requirements of your nodes and efficiently deploy new containers and images.
