May 2015 Summaries

Sysdig is hosting a meetup on June 2nd at PagerDuty headquarters in San Francisco, where they will unveil "csysdig," a new open-source curses UI, offering a sneak peek before its public release. The event will feature sessions covering container troubleshooting use cases using csysdig's enhanced visibility capabilities, an overview of csysdig's architecture, and a tutorial on creating custom csysdig views for contributing to the open-source project. Attendees will have opportunities to network, discuss presentations, and engage with the Sysdig community. The event promises to be both informative and a valuable networking opportunity for those interested in container technologies and open-source contributions.

Sysdig 0.1.100 introduces several updates and bug fixes to enhance its functionality, including improved compatibility with Docker containers through the use of GCC 4.8 and better formatting in the echo_fds chisel. Notable new features include support for intercepting signals via the signaldeliver event, which provides parameters such as source and destination PIDs and signal type. The update also addresses issues like correctly displaying container output even when containers are renamed on Docker versions 1.5 and above, and fixes related to the exists filter operator. Falco Feeds is highlighted as an extension that provides open source-focused companies with expert-written rules updated continuously to combat new threats. Users can access the source code for this release, and community support is available through the Sysdig mailing list, with bugs and issues being submitted via GitHub.
