Summary

Sysdig offers a comprehensive monitoring solution for Azure Container Service by providing visibility into container and microservices-based applications. It enhances Azure's native tools by enabling in-depth monitoring of container interactions, such as HTTP requests, network connectivity, and resource usage, without needing to install agents inside the containers. Sysdig supports orchestrators like Docker Swarm, Kubernetes, and Mesosphere, and integrates seamlessly with Azure's infrastructure, offering real-time insights and metadata aggregation through its ServiceVision functionality. This allows for a detailed and holistic view of application performance, including service bottlenecks and response times, and supports service-based access control to tailor monitoring to specific teams or applications. Sysdig can be deployed as a SaaS solution or installed on-premises, offering flexibility in how organizations choose to implement it.
