Hybrid monitoring to correlate containers with on-premise infrastructure

As businesses modernize and refactor workloads in the cloud, containers become valuable to scaling applications.

  • Gain insights at the service level over containers to monitor, visualize, and alert on aggregate service level data for holistic business information.
  • LogicMonitor presents container insights alongside your organization’s existing monitored hybrid infrastructure in a single unified monitoring platform for visibility across operations teams.

Keep your containerized applications healthy

Organizations need insights into the performance of applications that are running in containers, as well as the health of the underlying container resources and orchestration components.

  • LogicMonitor presents insights alongside your organization’s existing monitored hybrid infrastructure in a single, unified monitoring platform.
  • Focus on the health and performance of the overall service, regardless of changes in underlying resource at both the cluster and application levels.
  • LogicMonitor retains data about the performance of the service or application that runs in the container for historical knowledge about container health.

Monitor and track dynamic services and ephemeral resources

Containers and pods are ephemeral resources. It’s difficult to monitor components that may appear (and disappear) quickly and unpredictably. To accurately track ephemeral resources, LogicMonitor employs event-based discovery.

  • Cluster resources are automatically added and removed from monitoring based on Kubernetes events or changes in microservices.
  • Dynamically group together containers and other ephemeral resources supporting common microservices.

Event-based kubernetes monitoring: a new level of clarity

Event-based Kubernetes monitoring eliminates the most common challenges of monitoring ephemeral resources by:

  • Eliminating the need to deploy an agent on every node.
  • Storing data for up to two years.
  • Providing insights on underutilized resources to optimize CPU, memory, and more.
  • Automatically adding and removing cluster resources including nodes, pods, and services.

Identify performance trends

Maintaining data continuity with the complexity of modern applications is challenging. LogicMonitor uses data across resources supporting a common application to provide long-term views into how that application performs over time.

  • Key performance indicators are aggregated across grouped resources to provide monitoring for the health and performance of the service as a whole.
  • LogicMonitor offers intelligent contextual alerting so you can see what matters, solve problems quickly, and remove alert storm distractions.
  • LogicMonitor proactively alerts you when a container isn’t performing optimally through pre-built or dynamic thresholds.

Total container monitoring

It provides container monitoring for:

Kubernetes

  • Comprehensively monitor Kubernetes from clusters to Kubelets. LogicMonitor automatically adds and removes cluster resources from monitoring – including nodes, pods, services, and more.

Docker

  • Built-in Docker integrations and automated discovery ensures visibility of all ephemeral resources.

Amazon ECS

  • Focus on high-priority issues and reduce alert noise with pre-configured alert thresholds for AWS container services, including EKS and ECS.
