HTTP – Zabbix makes requests over http, for example printers

SNMP – a network protocol for communicating with network devices

IPMI is a protocol for communicating with server devices such as routers

When we run an application in a Docker container, all the standard output (what is displayed in the console) of the running program (process) is buffered. We can view this buffer with the docker logs name_container program . If we follow the Docker ideology – "one process, one container" – we can view the logs of an individual program. It is convenient to use the less and tail commands to view logs. The first program allows you to conveniently scroll through the logs with the keyboard arrows, search for the desired one based on matches and using a regular expression pattern, like the text editor vi . The second program displays the amount we need

An important criterion for ensuring smooth operation is the control of free space. So, if there is no space left, then the database will not be able to write data, with other components the situation can be more dire than the loss of new data. Docker has limit settings not only for individual containers, at least 10%. During imaging or container startup, an error may be thrown that the specified limits have been exceeded. To change the default settings, you need to tell the Dockerd server the settings, after stopping it with service docker stop (all containers will be stopped) and after resuming it with service docker start (the containers will be resumed). Settings can be set as options / bin / dockerd –storange-opt dm.basesize = 50G –stirange-opt

In Container, we have authorization, control over our containers, with the ability to create them for testing and see graphs on the processor and memory. More will require a monitoring system. There are quite a few monitoring systems, for example, Zabbix, Graphite, Prometheus, Nagios, InfluxData, OkMeter, DataDog, Bosum, Sensu and others, of which Zabbix and Prometheus are the most popular. The first is traditionally used, since it is the leading deployment tool, which admins love for its ease of use (all you need to do is to have SSH access to the server), low-level, which allows you to work not only with servers, but also with other hardware, such as routers. The second is the opposite of the first: it is focused exclusively on collecting metrics and monitoring, focused as a ready-made solution, and not a framework and fell in love with programmers, set it according to the principle, chose metrics and received graphs. The key feature between Zabbix and Prometheus is not in the preferences of some to customize in detail for themselves and others to spend much less time, but in the scope. Zabbix is focused on setting up work with a specific hardware, which can be anything, and often very exotic in a corporate environment, and for this entity, a manual collection of metrics is written, a schedule is manually configured. For a dynamically changing environment of cloud solutions, even if it is just a Docker container, and even more so if it is Kubernetes, in which a huge number of entities are constantly created, and the entities themselves, apart from the general environment, are not of particular interest, it is not suitable for this in Prometheus Service Discovery is built-in and navigation is supported for Kubernetes through the namespace, the balancer (service) and the group of containers (POD), which can be configured in Grafana in the form of tables. In Kubernetes, according to The News Stack 2017, Kubernetes User and Experience is used in 63% of cases, in the rest there are more rare cloud monitoring tools.
