The Crossroad of Security & Observability in Kubernetes: A Fireside Chat

Security as an afterthought is no longer an option and must be deeply embedded in the design and implementation of the products that will be running in the cloud. It is increasingly more critical for many security teams to be almost, if not equally, knowledgeable of the emerging and rapidly evolving technology. Join Manish Sampat from Tigera, as explores the topic in detail with Stan Lee from Paypal.

Service Mesh, Observability and Beyond - Sheetal Joshi, AWS

Congratulations! You’re now cloud-native with microservices. No more legacy monoliths. However, troubleshooting takes time, debugging is difficult, and security is scary. How can you scale your organization without losing an understanding of your environment? Services mesh is here to help! It gives you the observability of connected services and is easier to adopt than you might think. Come and learn service mesh concepts, best practices, and key challenges.

Kubernetes Observability & Troubleshooting: Best Practices - Raj Singh, Box

Early adoption of Kubernetes came with its set of challenges for Box, that led to innovative solutions & learnings. In this session, the speaker will take you through some of those solutions around Kubernetes Observability & best practices which will make your Kubernetes journey easier.

Beyond the network: Next Generation Security and Observability with eBPF - Shaun Crampton, Tigera

Learn how eBPF will bring a richer picture of what's going on in your cluster, without changing your applications. With eBPF we can safely collect information from deep within your applications, wherever they interact with the kernel. For example, collecting detailed socket statistics to root-cause network issues, or pinpointing the precise binary inside a container that made a particular request for your audit trail. This allows for insights into the behavior (and security) of the system that previously would have needed every process to be (manually) instrumented.

Ensuring adequate security, observability, & compliance for cloud native applications

Containers, Microservices, and cloud-based applications have revolutionized the way companies build and deliver products globally. This has also changed the attack surface and requires very different security strategies and tools to avoid exposure to sensitive information and other cyber attacks. Regulatory compliance has also evolved making it ever so important for companies to adapt to this new paradigm.

A New Approach to Metrics

Today at o11ycon+hnycon—right now, actually, if you’re reading this blog when it was posted—we’re announcing several new Honeycomb features during the keynote. Our industry and community have come a long way since we burst onto the scene, and I’m delighted to give you another version of Honeycomb that continues to demonstrate what’s possible with observability. And it includes metrics.

Multi-Project Cloud Monitoring made easier

Customers need scale and flexibility from their cloud and this extends into supporting services such as monitoring and logging. Google Cloud’s Monitoring and Logging observability services are built on the same platforms used by all of Google that handle over 16 million metrics queries per second, 2.5 exabytes of logs per month, and over 14 quadrillion metric points on disk, as of 2020.

Unified Observability: A Business-Centric View

Here at LogicMonitor, we’re on a mission to build the most comprehensive, extensible, and intelligent monitoring and observability platform in the world to help businesses run seamlessly. We’ve spent more than a decade building a best-in-class monitoring platform. Over the past two years, however, we have further evolved our platform to deliver invaluable end-to-end observability across applications, networks, and infrastructure for companies of all sizes and in a variety of industries.

Total Economic Impact study: Elastic delivers 10X performance with up to 75% cost savings

Ten times faster at a fraction of the cost. If you want a headline as to why you should consider adopting Elastic for security and observability, that is it. We often work with our customers to help them establish the business value of Elastic within their organizations. We commissioned Forrester to conduct a Total Economic Impact (TEI) study of our security and observability solutions so our customers have an unbiased view that they can share with their internal stakeholders.
