IBM and Instana announced that
Instana has became the first Observability platform provider to support
deployment via Cloud-Native Buildpack for applications running on Google Cloud
Run. A leader in automated Application Monitoring and Observability for
Cloud-Native microservice applications, Instana has delivered the fastest and
easiest way to deploy observability and performance monitoring into serverless
functions running on the Google Cloud Platform.
"In fast-changing cloud-based serverless application
environments, DevOps teams require application monitoring and observability
methodology that not only monitors and traces the infrastructure, but can also
deploy quickly and easily," said Chris Farrell, Technical Director and
Observability Strategist at Instana. "The Instana Cloud-native Buildpack for
Google Cloud Run allows teams to deploy the automated serverless monitoring and
tracing by simply dropping the Buildpack into their environment."
Instana's Enterprise Observability Platform, powered by
automated Application Performance Monitoring, discovers and maps all services,
infrastructure and their inter-dependencies automatically. Instana ingests all
observability metrics, traces each request, profiles every process and updates
application dependency maps in real time to deliver the context and actionable
feedback needed by Dev+Ops to optimize application performance, enable
innovation and mitigate risk to help them add value and efficiency to the
pipeline.
Instana being recently acquired, IBM is leading the way in
automation for application observability and monitoring, especially for
Cloud-Native, microservice, hybrid and multi-cloud applications. Combined with
IBM Watson AIOps, for example,, Instana's Enterprise Observability Platform
delivers unprecedented automatic monitoring and application pipeline management
that Dev and Ops teams need to deliver, deploy and maintain applications faster
and with higher quality.
Instana's Cloud-Native Buildpack for Google Cloud Run
creates the fastest and easiest way to deploy Instana's monitoring and tracing
onto serverless workloads running in Google Cloud. The Buildpack automatically
adds Instana monitoring and tracing into any Buildpack deployment. Users simply
issue a "pack build" command to add in Instana, and the Buildpack will deploy
configured monitoring sensors, enabling monitoring and tracing instantly.
With support for AWS Lambda, Fargate, Google Cloud Run
and other serverless infrastructure, Instana provides broad capabilities to
automatically monitor serverless workload performance and trace distributed
requests through any workload, including serverless functions. Even in highly
volatile, constantly changing environments, Instana's real-time change
detection and mapping keep up so that everyone from Dev + Ops gets the
performance data they need at any time.
