Ruxit, the fastest growing monitoring
provider for large-scale dynamic environments, today announced the
general availability of Deep Docker Monitoring.
This new solution from Ruxit addresses the key technological challenges
of moving containerized, micro service applications into production,
and meets a growing need as Docker adoption becomes more prevalent.
Ruxit’s Docker capabilities are far more extensive than partial
solutions recently announced by competitors.
Ruxit’s full visibility into Docker production
environments integrates views across the infrastructure and
applications, auto-identifying dependencies and enabling organizations
to identify and resolve issues faster and more effectively.
With container technologies being used
increasingly in production, Ruxit Deep Docker Monitoring meets the
rising demand for easy-to-use, yet powerful monitoring and management
solutions for Docker environments. “A new study we will be releasing
next month reveals that about 40 percent of Docker users are already or
about to move into production. As they take this step, close to 50
percent see proper monitoring as a key challenge they have to master,”
said Bernd Greifeneder, founder of Ruxit.

“Keeping track of our real-time scalable
Docker environment running on AWS Elastic Beanstalk was a real challenge
before we deployed Ruxit’s Deep Docker Monitoring solution. Ruxit
enables us to run our systems at ideal performance levels and helps us
to resolve problems quickly,” said Christian Beikov, Co-Founder of
Sweazer.
When asked about how Ruxit’s Docker support is
different from other monitoring providers such as New Relic, Datadog or
AppDynamics who recently announced support for Docker environments,
Greifeneder said, “We have built a full-stack solution, not a partial,
limited one. Ruxit not only allows organizations to monitor Docker
stats data, but also automatically detects all running processes and
hosted micro services. All this information gets visualized with Ruxit’s
smartscape technology.”
The product update is part of Ruxit’s Liquid Datacenter
initiative that builds on existing experience with VMWare and AWS
environments to address today’s highly complex and dynamic IT
environments. The Docker-specific extension adds key features to the
Ruxit platform, including:
-
Real-time visualization of multi-datacenter environments.
- Management for the dynamics of Kubernetes, Apache Mesos and AWS Elastic Beanstalk.
- Deep network monitoring for Software Defined Networks.
- Capacity planning for Docker-based micro service architecture.
“Docker in production is a dynamic and fast
evolving field, and we will be releasing even more innovation in the
next months ahead,” says Greifeneder. For more information on Ruxit’s
