Proactively Monitor Kubernetes and Applications Using AIOps

Proactively Monitor Kubernetes and Applications Using AIOps

[object Object]

Successful modern business applications need to be reliable and secure. 


If you don’t proactively observe and monitor these applications and the environments they run in, you won’t know how reliable and secure they are. 


Out-of-the-box, Kubernetes’ has surprisingly bare bones monitoring capability, lacking the following:


  • Not Proactive (no alerts, you have to ask).

  • No history (only current status).

  • No graphic visualization (only text-based API/CLI)

  • No security scanning


This results in poor app quality and excessive downtime. 


There are several open source software tools to improve Kubernetes observability and even proactively alert users when issues occur.  But, installing, configuring, integrating these tools requires several experts. 


KAOPS has integrated these observability tools into a single dashboard for your team, making it easy to use. 


With KAOPS, you get:


  • 10x less downtime (e.g. from 99.0 to 99.9%)

  • Fewer experts required

  • AIOps is like having an K8s expert watching 24x7

  • Proactive alerts allows Ops to identify issues before your customers

  • Better security with continuous runtime CVE scanning

Watch video now:


Many modern business critical applications run in Kubernetes. 


Out-of-the-box, Kubernetes does not provide any monitoring other than a read-only CLI and API, meaning a user must query Kubernetes to find any problems. 


Also, the user must know exactly what to look for, requiring them to be an expert on both Kubernetes and the application resources, which increases cost. 


Also, the Kubernetes API only returns current state, and doesn’t keep track of the history of resources and issues. 


The experts need to be watching 24x7. 


Fortunately, issue identification, history, visualization, and proactive alerting are such important issues that each one has an open source tools to address them. 


Unfortunately, app teams everywhere need to hire several experts to install, configure and integrate these solutions for the app team. 


KAOPS has integrated these observability tools into a single dashboard for your team, making it easy to install and configure. 


Solution requirements:


To solve these problems and observe Kubernetes and applications properly requires the following:


  • Key Performance Indicator (KPI) monitoring and database (Prometheus)

  • Visualization and graphing (Grafana)

  • Proactive alerting (AlertManager) via email or text

  • Runtime security scanning for CVE (common vulnerabilities and exposures)

  • Simple issue explanation and resolution (LLM)

  • Integrate the above into a single dashboard to which only your team has access.


With KAOPS, you get:


  • 10x less downtime (e.g. from 99.0 to 99.9%)

  • Fewer experts required

  • Round-the-clock monitoring. AIOps is like having an K8s expert watching 24x7

  • Proactive alerts allows Ops to identify issues before your customers

  • Better security with continuous runtime CVE scanning


 

How KAOPS does it


Nethopper KAOPS:


  • Is a cloud-native management platform (CMP) that works with any cloud, Kubernetes and workloads. 

  • Uses GitOps blueprints to simplify cloud operations and deploy container workload and cloud native tools. 

  • Has a blueprint for configuring and installing all the observability tools you need, in any cluster, with the push of a few buttons, integrated into one dashboard.
