Abstract: A computer-implemented method of monitoring programmatic containers (containers) through executing a computer program in a kernel space is disclosed. The method comprises storing trace data in a memory buffer that is shared by the kernel space and a user space, the trace data being related to execution of a process associated with a container at an execution point of the process. The method also comprises retrieving container data related to the container through raw access of one or more kernel data structures when execution of the process is stopped. In addition, the method comprises storing the container data in association with the trace data in the memory buffer.

Abstract: Techniques related to communication between independent containers are provided. In an embodiment, a first programmatic container includes one or more first namespaces in which an application program is executing. A second programmatic container includes one or more second namespaces in which a monitoring agent is executing. The one or more first namespaces are independent of the one or more second namespaces. A monitoring agent process hosts the monitoring agent. The monitoring agent is programmed to receive an identifier of the application program. The monitoring agent is further programmed to switch the monitoring agent process from the one or more second namespaces to the one or more first namespaces. After the switch, the monitoring agent process continues to execute in the second programmatic container, but communication is enabled between the application program and the monitoring agent via the monitoring agent process.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a data processing method comprises transmitting, from a monitoring computer system that is programmed for monitoring one or more services, a request for information relating to new services to a cluster of computing nodes that are managing the one or more services; receiving from the cluster of nodes an indication that a new service not included in the one or more services has been created; in response to receiving the indication, creating a monitoring subsystem for performing one or more functions, which may include monitoring the new service, verifying security and/or compliance, logging the new security, and network management; assigning the monitoring subsystem to the new service; sending access information for the monitoring subsystem to one or more user computers.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method comprises executing, in a first container of a first computer system, input source instructions; executing, using the same first computer system, a plurality of containerized application programs in different corresponding containers; monitoring, by the input source instructions, the one or more different containerized application programs by identifying one or more system calls that resulted from the different container applications generating statistical messages relating to operation of the containerized application programs; generating, by the input source instructions, one or more enriched messages based on the system calls that were identified and based on the statistical messages; transmitting the one or more enriched messages to a first metric collector, and aggregating a plurality of the enriched messages into a set of aggregated metrics values; sending, from the first metric collector to a monitoring application that is hosted on a second computer system, the aggregated

Abstract: In an embodiment, a data processing method comprises creating and storing a scoring threshold value that is associated with determining whether a baseline operation rule is to be generated; receiving, from service monitoring processes, datasets of operations performed on digital objects by processors associated with computer applications; aggregating operations and identifying operation properties from the aggregated operations to generate an aggregated baseline dataset that represents operation properties from aggregated operations; assigning score values to each of the operation properties, wherein each assigned score value represents whether a particular operation property is a candidate for generating a rule that defines expected operation property values for the particular operation property; automatically generating a set of baseline operations rules for only those operation properties that have assigned values that exceed the score threshold value.
