Microservices, as the name implies, break up applications into many small pieces. Teaming microservices with DevOps is considered the new path to rapidly bring business value to software applications, and Docker is the primary containerization technology that can make microservices a reality.

Speed has a price, however. Breaking up applications introduces new types of issues that traditional architectures do not need to deal with.

Join this web seminar with Amy Feldman to learn about five ways to tame the container chaos.

Learn:

1. How analytics can be used to guide design decisions and identify practices that correlate to the higher levels of performance
2. Where, when, and how to enrich performance monitoring with detailed instrumentation and the value of additional metrics in cloud environments
3. How to extend support with synthetics to monitor the APIs that are key to driving communication between microservices
4. How increases in components, dependencies, and communication flows necessitate the need for automatic mapping and maintaining telemetry data
5. How to apply established configuration management techniques to containers using automation to preserve velocity

Presenter: Amy Feldman is director of CA APM Product Marketing, focusing on expanding thought leadership, sales enablement, and product marketing for CA APM. Previously Amy worked at HP, where she was a solution marketing manager for a cloud platform based on open source technologies such as Cloud Foundry, Docker containers, and OpenStack.
