Thanks, that looks promising! Do you use it yourself, or just happen to know about it?

I've had drinks with Loris Degioanni and Brendan Gregg after a conference one year (Monitorama). Getting to ask two legit heavyweights in the industry about how to monitor containers at scale was definitely a high point for me. Also, Loris is an incredibly smart and entirely reasonable guy. I grilled him pretty hard and came away with the distinct impression his tech is exceptional for what it is, and the product pretty much sells itself as a result.

I don't currently use it as we just use prometheus + kubernetes just because my company isn't big on cloud services and doesn't have a need for it just yet.

Note: I have absolutely no relationship to him or Sysdig, just am a random tech guy impressed occasionally by good tech.

Thanks again for the elaborate answer. It sounds like a great product with solid tech. I'll definitely be looking into it!

Thanks for sharing. I had no idea who Degioanni was, although I'm familiar with sysdig. Everyone knows Brendan Greg I guess, especially FreeBSD/Solaris folks (dtrace and all).

I use it to monitor connections, connection speed and processes running on specific containers (usually Jenkins builders) and it's really good & easy to use.
