Container-Microservices Monitoring
Get visibility into your microservices and containerized applications alongside the rest of your hybrid IT infrastructure in a single monitoring platform.
Rapidly deploy dynamic microservice monitoring
LogicMonitor automatically discovers containers, microservices, and underlying resources, so you can save your team valuable time without having to worry about whether your monitoring is keeping up.

Monitor and track dynamic services and ephemeral resources
Containers and pods are ephemeral resources. It’s difficult to monitor a component that may appear (and disappear) quickly and unpredictably. To accurately track ephemeral resources, LogicMonitor employs event-based discovery, where cluster resources are automatically added and removed from monitoring based on Kubernetes events or changes in microservices.
You can dynamically group together containers and other ephemeral resources supporting a common microservice, enabling you to focus on the health and performance of the overall service, regardless of changes in underlying resources.
Customized dashboards for deeper insight
Get deeper insights with customizable dashboards and reports that enable you to create meaningful views for your container and microservices environments. Share at-a-glance views of your container and microservices environment with stakeholders to keep them informed.
Identify performance trends
It can be challenging to maintain data continuity with the complexity of modern applications. LogicMonitor uses data across resources supporting a common application to provide long-term views into how that application performs over time. Key performance indicators are aggregated across these grouped resources to provide monitoring for the health and performance of the service as a whole.
Keep your containerized applications healthy
With containers, organizations need insight into the performance of their applications that are running in containers, as well as the health of the underlying container resources and orchestrating components. To get the most out of their deployment, LogicMonitor presents these insights alongside your organization’s existing monitored hybrid infrastructure in a single, unified monitoring platform.
Quickly measure SLA conformance for your overall service
LogicMonitor’s powerful o11y platform calculates SLA conformance with data that reflects the health of your overall service, instead of calculating based on the availability of individual underlying resources, so you can make sure you’re measuring what matters.
Container monitoring benefits
Automated discovery
Frequent and recurring discovery attempts ensure that your monitoring is always up to date. Metadata is automatically populated during discovery, so you have the contextual information you need when viewing and managing monitored resources.
Application Performance Health
Get long-term views into how a group of resources supporting a common application are performing and correlate performance trends with events.
Downtime prevention
Pre-configured alert thresholds ensure that you receive meaningful alerts right from the start, and help you to proactively prevent downtime.
Dynamic grouping
Dynamic grouping for resources supporting a common service makes it simpler to manage and schedule downtime for just those resources.
Service health
Out of the box dashboards provide deeper insight and will help you identify how you can optimize your cluster.
Data retention
LogicMonitor not only tracks, monitors, and alerts on containers and microservices, but also retains that data for up to two years. This enables you to identify trends and forecast utilization over time.

Microservice and Container Monitoring FAQs
- What are microservices
Microservices are an architectural approach to development that is composed of small, individual services that can be built and work on their own, but can be added together for faster development. Microservices are autonomous, allowing each service to work functionally on it’s own.
- What are containers
Containers are bundled packages of software that contain all of the necessary elements to function. A container can house one microservice and the libraries and tools needed for it to function, as well as house multiple microservices together for an entire application to run.
- What are ephemeral containers?
Ephemeral containers a kind of Kubernetes container that temporarily runs in a pod, and can spin up as necessary, which are used primarily for troubleshooting workloads.
