When building cloud-based applications, managing the infrastructure becomes a bigger challenge as you scale. Kubernetes brings order to the chaos, letting you control and automate the containers used to deploy your application. Debugging in the cloud presents further challenges, and the complexities of distributed applications make it hard for many debugging setups to keep pace. Tools designed to run locally aren't effective. However, there are Kubernetes debugging tools that can handle the shift in paradigm. In this article, you'll read about several options that make debugging Kubernetes applications much easier.
Kubernetes as a project is growing at a rapid pace, resulting in many features being added, deprecated, and removed throughout the process.

An essential aspect of operating any application is the ability to observe the health and performance of that application and of the underlying infrastructure to quickly resolve issues as they arise. Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) already provides audit logs, operational logs, and metrics along with out-of-the-box dashboards and automatic error reporting to facilitate running reliable applications at scale.
