Container monitoring environments come in all shapes and sizes. Some are open source while others are commercial. Some are in the Rancher Catalog while others require manual configuration. Some are general purpose while others are aimed specifically at container environments. Some are hosted in the cloud while others require installation on own cluster hosts.

In this post, I take an updated look at 10 container monitoring solutions. This effort builds on earlier work including Ismail Usman’s Comparing 7 Monitoring Options for Docker from 2015 and The Great Container Monitoring Bake Off Meetup in October of 2016.
