Preface

With the increase in the adoption of Docker containers, the need to monitor which containers are running, what resources they are consuming, and how it affects the overall performance of the system, has become a time-related need. Monitoring Docker will teach you how monitoring containers and keeping a keen eye on the working of applications help to improve the overall performance of the applications that run on Docker.

This book will cover monitoring containers using Docker's native monitoring functions, various plugins, and also third-party tools that help in monitoring. The book will first cover how to obtain detailed stats for the active containers, resources consumed, and container behavior. This book will also show the readers how to use these stats to improve the overall performance of the system.

What this book covers

, Introduction to Docker Monitoring , discusses how different it is to monitor containers compared to more traditional servers such as virtual machines, bare metal machines, and cloud instances (Pets versus Cattle and Chickens versus Snowflakes). This chapter also details the operating systems covered in the examples later in this book and also gives a little information on how to get a local test environment up and running using vagrant, so that installation instructions and practical examples can be easily followed.
