Secure and monitor your containers on Bottlerocket from AWS

Bottlerocket is a purpose-built operating system from AWS designed specifically for hosting Linux containers, aimed at enhancing security and management in containerized environments. It reduces complexity and security risks by including only essential software, thus optimizing resource usage and simplifying OS updates, particularly when used with Amazon EKS. Bottlerocket features image-based updates for consistency, API-driven configuration, and the exclusion of SSH to enhance security by making it harder for attackers to access the system. Sysdig supports Bottlerocket by ensuring its security and monitoring tools are compatible, leveraging the Sysdig agent to provide comprehensive visibility and protection through runtime security and performance monitoring. This integration allows users to confidently detect vulnerabilities, monitor infrastructure, and scale Prometheus monitoring across Kubernetes clusters, thereby improving operational efficiency and security.
