Sysdig launches Sysdig Advisor to improve Kubernetes troubleshooting
Sysdig Advisor is a new product being offered as a part of Sysdig Monitor. According to the company it accelerates troubleshooting time by up to 10 times.
It provides admins with a prioritized list of issues and troubleshooting data. It gives them all the relevant context and actionable information needed to resolve issues when they are discovered, eliminating the need to search through wikis, Stack Overflow, or blogs to find the answer they’re looking for on how to resolve an issue.
Deepfence Cloud now available
Deepfence Cloud is a fully managed security observability offering. Customers gain the benefits of visibility of cloud-native infrastructure without needing to worry about the overhead of deploying and managing resources themselves.
Customers get a high-level view of their infrastructure, but they can also drill down into individual applications or functions. Deepfence Cloud also offers single sign-on and integration with enterprise identity platforms.
The offering comes with a free trial, or prospective customers can get a demo at KubeCon this week.
