At LogDNA, we’re all about speed. We need to ingest, parse, index, and archive several terabytes of data per second. To reach these speeds, we need to find and implement innovative solutions for optimizing all steps of our pipeline, especially when it comes to storing data.
Today at Kubecon we announced the availability of IBM Cloud Monitoring with Sysdig. Together, IBM and Sysdig have launched this new offering to provide a fully managed enterprise-grade monitoring service for cloud-native applications on IBM Cloud. If you build, ship, and run applications on IBM Cloud, you now have direct, integrated access to Sysdig Monitor.
Ankur Agarwal, Rancher's Head of Product Management, describes new features in Rancher 2.2. Learn how to monitor multiple Kubernetes clusters in this step-by-step tutorial and how our Alpha Release process works.
With the recent panic over the zero-day Kubernetes vulnerability CVE-2018-1002105, Kubernetes administrators are scrambling to ensure their Kubernetes clusters are upgraded to a version that is patched for the vulnerability. As of this writing, the minimum versions that have the patch are 1.10.11, 1.11.5, 1.12.3, and 1.13.0-rc.1.
Today Rancher announces a partnership with Arm to create a Kubernetes-based platform for IoT, edge, and data center nodes, all powered by Arm servers. Rancher and Arm are working jointly on a Smart City project in China. Read more here.
It finally happened. At the start of DockerCon Europe and a week before KubeCon was set to take place in the U.S., researchers discovered the first major vulnerability within Kubernetes, the popular cloud container orchestration system.
Over the past four years we’ve helped hundreds of organizations run reliable, secure, and compliant Kubernetes and Openshift clusters. Some of the key themes we’ve seen from organizations that have successfully grown their Kubernetes footprint are: they have immaculate labeling, understand how to leverage internal Kubernetes features to harden their platform, and understand what developers need access to and manage it with RBAC and namespaces.
Container security orchestration allows to define within your security policy how you are going to respond to your different container security incidents. These responses can be automated in what is called security playbooks. This way, you can define and orchestrate multiple workflows involving different software both for sourcing and responding. This is how Falco and Splunk Phantom can be integrated together to do this.
While you’re likely familiar with role-based access control, Sysdig teams introduce the concept of service-based access control. With service-based access control, administrators can define groups of users that have access to policy events, policy configuration, and scanning data limited to a service or set of services, as defined by your orchestration system (think Kubernetes, Mesos, and the like).
LogicMonitor is an agentless monitoring solution. What we really mean by “agentless” is that we don’t require an agent on every monitored server (physical or virtual). One LogicMonitor Collector - a lightweight application that takes just seconds to install - can monitor hundreds or even thousands of devices, including servers, virtual machines, network switches, storage systems, cloud resources, containers, and more.
