Summary

In this blog post, Jake O'Donnell details a new deployment tracking feature for Logz.io Open 360™ users, particularly beneficial for those utilizing Kubernetes 360 and Service Overview, to streamline the troubleshooting process in complex microservices architectures. This feature allows users to easily track and visualize service deployments overlaid on telemetry data, providing insights into the impact of these deployments on production health and performance. By automatically detecting changes and offering detailed deployment information, the tool aids in identifying potential causes of production issues, such as increased response times or altered resource usage. Users can activate deployment tracking by running the Telemetry Collector on their Kubernetes clusters or installing the Logz.io Kubernetes events Helm chart, with deployment events marked by a dotted vertical line on the graphs. This enhancement enables better correlation with alerts, facilitating a deeper understanding of how deployments affect system behavior, and users are encouraged to explore this functionality through a free trial of the Open 360 platform.
