Microservices and containers have become a major part of IT infrastructure and ensuring they are performant and reliable is essential.

Logit.io provides a single platform built on the popular open-source logging solutions ELK and Grafana, giving observability across containers and infrastructure, enabling your engineers to investigate, identify trends, and diagnose issues faster.

It is a frequent occurrence that users of other container monitoring services don't know just how much they are going to be billed due to unexpected fees and complicated pricing calculators. Logit.io aims to be the difference as one of the few observability platforms that gives our users full transparency of their costs.

Logit.io users aren't faced with hidden charges as part of their billing and any additional services that are requested (such as cold storage and archiving) have their pricing clearly communicated prior to their implementation.

Logit.io also supports open data transference for users that wish to export their logs to complimentary third party services. As a result of this, we do not levy data egress fees unlike many other SaaS providers, nor do our users have to deal with the difficulties associated with vendor lock-in.

What is Container Monitoring?

Container monitoring tracks the activity of containerised applications that are built on microservice-architectures. A specific need for container monitoring arises as containers are typically more difficult to monitor in-house when compared to traditional application monitoring due to their dynamic and stateless nature.

As orchestrated environments become evermore complex a typical use case that you may require our platform for includes Docker container monitoring. Docker container monitoring takes into account all metrics related to the performance of Docker, its resource usage and overall health.

Monitoring your containers in real-time with a solution such as Logit.io is essential to ensure the best possible performance of your apps.

The best container monitoring tools continuously collect metrics and logs in order to track the health of your containers and microservices consistently.

Our platform can be used to monitor your full technology stack as outside of container monitoring we also provide log analysis, metrics as a service, and SIEM as a service.

Built-in Containerisation Integrations

Use our container source integrations to streamline the collection of your container and microservice datasets across your business. Send any volume of data in real-time, using existing open-source data integrations such as those included in the Elastic Beats family (including Filebeat, Auditbeat and Metricbeat).

We also provide complete support for Kubernetes, Red Hat and Docker across Linux, Windows, Mac and serverless applications.

Container Dashboards and Visualisations

Kibana and Elasticsearch make light work of analysing and correlating Kubernetes and Docker container logs in real-time. Giving you complete flexibility from your container and microservice monitoring service.

Kibana dashboards can be used across a variety of use cases for generating custom visualisations and dashboards, from DevOps and InfoSec teams to business intelligence and IT professionals.
