What is Docker monitoring?

Docker monitoring monitors the performance of microservice containers in Docker environments. Docker containers isolate software from its surroundings – creating a lightweight, stand-alone, executable packaged piece of software that includes everything needed to run it. Docker provides a streamlined and transparent solution for all your container needs.

How can Docker monitoring help an organization like yours?

Docker monitoring enables businesses to accelerate and optimize the performance of microservices running in dynamic Docker environments.

Combining hassle-free configuration, automatic container discovery, and massively scalable metric collection and analytics, Docker monitoring helps organizations exploit the power and performance of Docker without incurring additional risk. Docker monitoring also enables your business to easily streamline your process and package software into standardized units for development, shipment, and deployment—helping you conduct digital business at scale while providing great user experiences.
