Analyzing application performance

Latency, traffic, errors, and saturation are considered Golden Signals by Google SRE teams.

Let's follow these instructions to learn how to navigate through the Sysdig Monitor interface to find the Golden Signals for your application on Kubernetes:

  1. Log in to your Sysdig Cloud-Native Visibility and Security Platform dashboard at https://app.sysdigcloud.com:

  1. Resources are automatically grouped in the Hosts & Containers group. Click on the groups dropdown and select Deployments and pods:

  1. Click on the dashboard and metrics dropdown and select the HTTP dashboard under Default DashboardsApplications:

  1. Sysdig can identify and decode application protocols such as HTTP and give you detailed metrics. In this view, you can see the number of requests, the most requested URLs or endpoints, the slowest URLs, and the HTTP response codes and request types for the entire infrastructure:

  1. As an example of performance troubleshooting, move your mouse over the Slowest URLs graph to identify problems and applications with slow response times. In our example, we see a slow response time of 48 ms from the Kubecost Prometheus server we deployed earlier:

Now you have basic knowledge about how to navigate through Sysdig dashboards. Sysdig provides deep tracing capabilities that can be used when monitoring more than one container. We will learn more about Sysdig's security features and anomaly detection usage in Chapter 9Securing Applications and Clusters. You can find the additional use cases in the Sysdig examples link in the See also section.
