Monitoring and logs

Container logs vanish with the container. Ship them somewhere, scrape metrics, and alert on what users would notice.

What this lesson covers

• Aggregate logs off ephemeral pods
• Scrape and dashboard cluster and app metrics
• Alert on user-visible symptoms

This lesson sits in Operating a Cluster, part of DevOps with Docker and Kubernetes. It assumes what came before it and leads directly into the next lesson in the module.
