Monday August 17, 2015 7:00pm - 9:00pm
Presentation: The Dark Art of Container Monitoring presented by Gianluca Borello, Sr. Engineer, sysdig cloud
Containers are revolutionizing the way we deploy and maintain our infrastructures, but monitoring and troubleshooting in a containerized environment can still be painful and impractical. Understanding even basic resource usage is difficult - let alone tracking network connections or malicious activity. This talk will cover the current state of the art for container monitoring and visibility, including pros / cons and live demonstrations of each method. Special emphasis will be put on sysdig, an open source troubleshooting tool the presenter has helped develop. Sysdig offers unprecedented container visibility without the need to break the 'sanctity' of the container.
About Sysdig: Sysdig is the container visibility company, dedicated to making containers viable and mainstream by offering production-quality visibility into containerized applications, without sacrificing any of the benefits that make containers great. Sysdig is creating a new generation of 'container-native' performance management solutions, designed specifically to deliver monitoring in a microservices-friendly architecture. Founded in 2013 by Loris Degioanni, the company's open source sysdig technology has attracted a community of hundreds of thousands of developers, administrators and other IT professionals looking for deep visibility into systems and containers.
Sysdig's commercial product, Sysdig Cloud, is the first and only comprehensive, container-native monitoring, alerting and troubleshooting platform.
About the speaker: Gianluca Borello is a Senior Engineer at Sysdig Cloud, where he wears many hats. He's a core developer of the sysdig troubleshooting tool, and spends his days dealing with backend development, performance analysis and cloud infrastructures management. Prior to Sysdig, he worked at Riverbed and CACE Technologies, the company behind Wireshark. He's passionate about Linux, open source technologies and distributed systems at scale. He holds a MS in Computer Engineering from Politecnico di Torino, Italy.
