Case Study
Monitoring Docker and Kubernetes at WayBlazer
Moving Docker into production is still as much art as it is science. We caught up with Kevin Kuhl and Kevin Cashman at WayBlazer to talk about monitoring Docker and Kubernetes, selecting the right metrics to focus on, deciding what to run with Kubernetes, and diagnosing the “domino effect” in a Kubernetes failover.
Case Study
Brigham Young University (BYU)
The Brigham Young University (BYU) Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry is one of the leading research departments at BYU, focused on research that includes calorimetry, macrocycles, cancer therapy, and chromatography. Like most modern higher education institutions, the faculty and students in BYU’s chemistry department routinely access online systems that provide access to research and provide a way to submit assignments and coursework. Keeping these systems up and running is of the utmost importance for the Department, as downtime and slow performance directly inhibit their ability to drive innovation.
Case Study
Monitoring Java in Docker at CDK
The Digital Marketing business unit of CDK global shifted to a containerized approach for their next generation infrastructure. One of the challenges they ran into was how to monitor java applications in containers. Learn about some of their challenges and their use of Sysdig in this context.
