As an open-source system for automating deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications, Kubernetes has grown immensely in popularity. Increasingly, we are also beginning to come across platforms offering Kubernetes as both a hosted and managed service.

So, you want to implement run-time security in your Kubernetes cluster? If you are looking for an open-source tool, obviously Sysdig Falco is the way to go :). You can install Falco as a daemonSet, but as we wanted to make things even easier and natively integrated, we have packaged Falco as a Helm chart, the Kubernetes package manager.

How to ensure visibility into your next-generation Kubernetes environment. Having assisted hundreds of enterprises in developing a new visibility strategy as they move to Kubernetes, I’ve learned a few things about how organizations learn, evolve and adopt a new method of application observability. Open source is usually essential to developing this understanding.

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.
