Summary

Sysdig Cloud has introduced a comprehensive monitoring solution for Amazon's EC2 Container Service (ECS), addressing the challenges of complexity and limited visibility inherent in containerized microservice environments. This new solution leverages Sysdig's ContainerVision technology to provide deep insights into both infrastructure and application layers without requiring container instrumentation. By extracting metadata from Docker and ECS, Sysdig Cloud can map the logical structure of microservice applications, offering both physical and logical views that facilitate resource management and performance analysis. The tool enables operators to monitor, alert, and visualize ECS-based applications effectively, enhancing capacity planning and troubleshooting capabilities. This development supports organizations transitioning to ECS, allowing them to deploy production applications with greater confidence and efficiency.
