| | | Microsoft Operations Management Suite is extending its monitoring capabilities to Docker containers. Containers are designed to be lightweight and easily provisioned. However, without a centralized approach to monitoring, it may be difficult to manage and respond to critical issues at speed. Using Operations Management Suite Docker container monitoring, you can get container inventory, performance data, and logs from one place. Operations Management Suite also provides a simplified view of containers' usage and diagnoses issues across cloud and on-premises environments. Similar to other Operations Management Suite solutions, logs, inventory, and performance data are searchable and can be used to create custom reports and alerts. To try it, please visit the Get started with Operations Management Suite webpage.
