Microsoft recently released Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), a managed service that helps you deploy, run, and scale Kubernetes clusters. We’re pleased to share that Datadog’s integrations with Kubernetes and Azure Monitor can give you comprehensive visibility into your AKS infrastructure with no additional configuration.

It’s the first day of summer and the perfect opportunity for our summer Sysdig Monitor release round up. For those of you following our progress, we use these blogs to showcase the work we’ve done to add increased functionality, scale, and usability with Sysdig Monitor. What follows are quick descriptions of all the good stuff we’ve made available over the past few months.

Intro to managing and running a containerized Java Spring Boot application. Docker is a platform for packaging, deploying, and running applications in containers. It can run containers on any system that supports the platform: a developer’s laptop, systems on “on-prem,” or in the cloud without modification. Images, the packages Docker uses for applications, are truly cross-platform.

A few weeks ago, we announced Sysdig partnership with Google to integrate Sysdig Secure with Google Cloud Security Command Center, a single pane of glass for your security events in Google Cloud. Today we announce that Sysdig Falco, our open source project for container and Kubernetes run-time security, can also send Kubernetes security events to Google Cloud Security Command Center. Sysdig Falco is part of the underlying technology of Sysdig Secure.

A little over 2 years ago we opensourced Sysdig Falco with the goal of providing a robust detection engine that the community could use to securely run containers in production. Since the launch we expanded the default ruleset and have had 750,000+ downloads of Sysdig Falco. Organizations like cloud.gov and Yahoo have used Falco to detect behavioral anomalies across their containerized infrastructure.

BOSTON and TEL AVIV, June 13, 2018 — Logz.io, the leading provider of AI-powered log analytics, releases a specialized Docker Logging Plugin, enabling users to easily ship container logs to Logz.io. The Docker Logging Plugin was created to relieve many of the common issues developers experience when shipping container logs such as complex configuration, accidental pausing of container shipments, and potential loss of data.

“Why does the ‘docker logs’ command fail?“, is one of our frequently asked questions. The answer is simple and mentioned in the Docker documentation: “The docker logs command is not available for drivers other than json-file and journald.”

Operating containerized infrastructure brings with it a new set of challenges. You need to instrument your containers, evaluate your API endpoint performance, and identify bad actors within your infrastructure. The Istio service mesh enables instrumentation of APIs without code change and provides service latencies for free. But how do you make sense all that data? With math, that’s how.
