Kubernetes admission controllers in 5 minutes
Admission controllers are a powerful Kubernetes-native feature that helps you define and customize what is allowed to run on your cluster. As watchdogs, they can control what’s going into your cluster. They can manage deployments requesting too many resources, enforce pod security policies, and even block vulnerable images from being deployed. In this article, you’ll learn what admission controllers are in Kubernetes and how their webhooks can be used to implement image scanning.
Shielding your Kubernetes runtime with image scanning and the Sysdig Admission Controller
Implementing image scanning on a Kubernetes admission controller is an interesting strategy to apply policies that need Kubernetes context, and create a last line of defense for your cluster. You are probably following the image scanning best practices already, detecting vulnerabilities and misconfigurations before they can be exploited. However, not everything you deploy goes through your CI/CD pipeline or known registries. There are also third-party images and, sometimes, manual deploys.

How to monitor Amazon ECS with Elastic Observability
With an increasing number of organizations migrating their applications and workloads to containers, the ability to monitor and track container health and usage is more critical than ever. Many teams are already using the Metricbeat docker module to collect Docker container monitoring data so it can be stored and analyzed in Elasticsearch for further analysis. But what happens when users are using Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS)? Can Metricbeat still be used to monitor Amazon ECS? Yes!

With growing user demand comes the need for new methods of visibility and intelligence.
Monitoring Challenges Emerge as Agencies Embrace Container Technology
Container technology is catching on big-time in the federal government as agencies such as the USDA and the National Institutes of Health look to containers to simplify software development and reduce costs. Containers offer enormous advantages over traditional “waterfall” application development processes. A containerized approach makes it easier for developers to create and deploy software faster and with fewer errors.
