AppDynamics has been recognized by Docker as an Ecosystem Technology Partner (ETP) for monitoring. This designation indicates that the AppDynamics Docker Monitoring Extension has demonstrated working integration with the Docker platform via the Docker API, and is available to users and organizations that seek solutions to monitor their Dockerized distributed applications.
“Our business users are looking to make the application integration process more flexible, agile and portable,” said Scott Johnston, Docker’s SVP of Product. “AppDynamics further empowers our users to optimize continuous application delivery with an advanced visualization tool to manage the end-to-end processes inside Docker containers.”
AppDynamics provides visibility into applications and business transactions made out of multiple smaller decoupled microservices deployed in a Docker environment using the AppDynamics Docker Monitoring Extension. This solution monitors and reports on various metrics, including the total number of containers, running containers, images, CPU usage, memory usage, network traffic and more.
Customers can correlate Docker metrics with the metrics from the applications running in the container, while leveraging all of the functionality of the AppDynamics Application Intelligence Platform — including automatic dynamic baselining, alerting, analytics and more. The AppDynamics Docker Monitoring Extension also creates an out-of-the-box custom dashboard with key Docker metrics.
“With software-defined businesses increasingly adopting complex application architectures that incorporate microservices and Docker containerization, a visualization of the complete services path is critical,” said Jonah Kowall, AppDynamics VP of Market Development and Insights. “AppDynamics provides traceability from end-to-end for each interaction, from the user through all of the services calls, along with the infrastructure — and can now bring that complete visibility to Docker users.”

Cloud migration was supposed to be a one-way door. For most enterprises, it turns out it isn't. Cloud data repatriation is a real and growing trend. A new survey ... finds that 89% of organizations plan to expand their on-premises infrastructure footprint over the next two years — and 75% have already moved at least some workloads back from public cloud in the past 24 months. The findings point to a broad rethinking of where data belongs ...
Over the past few years, large language models (LLMs) have revolutionized the software industry. Given their ability to excel at multi-step reasoning, LLMs have helped enterprises streamline workflows and adapt to the unknown. However, employing such models comes with sky-high costs, latency issues, and limited flexibility. In the realm of IT operations, it is generally wiser to employ smaller, domain-specific models instead ...
For years, DevOps teams operated under a simple assumption: collect enough telemetry, and you can find and fix any problem. That assumption is breaking down. Modern enterprises now operate across microservices, hybrid cloud environments, APIs, Kubernetes, and highly automated delivery pipelines. Releases happen continuously, dependencies shift constantly, and failures spread faster than teams can diagnose them ...
New Relic surveyed IT and engineering leaders from the media and entertainment (M&E) sector to understand what's working — and where challenges persist with their observability practices. The findings reveal how M&E organizations are navigating rising platform complexity, audience expectations, and AI-driven change. Below are five takeaways that stand out ...
Let me start with something I've seen play out more times than I can count. A team hits a wall with the cloud. Costs creep up, then spike. Performance starts to feel inconsistent. Someone in finance asks a simple question like "why did this double?" and nobody has a clean answer ... Maybe this isn't the right place for everything. That realization feels like a breakthrough, like you've identified the problem. In reality, you've just identified the starting line ...

In cloud-native systems, scaling is often as simple as moving a slider. For on-premise databases, the stakes are different. Over-provisioning hardware is expensive. Under-provisioning leads to performance bottlenecks that are difficult to fix once the equipment is in the rack ...
When most people think about cybersecurity, they picture firewalls, encryption, and access controls — technical tools designed to protect systems and data. But beneath the technology lies a deeper set of principles about trust, decision-making, and resilience ... The best leaders don't eliminate risk. They manage it intelligently. And in many ways, cybersecurity offers a surprisingly useful playbook for doing exactly that ...
Many organizations assumed their infrastructure strategy was settled. It had been implemented, optimized and built into long-term plans. Recent changes in technology and vendor consolidation are forcing a second look. Cloud outages and licensing changes have exposed how much dependency exists on a small number of platforms. As a result, organizations are reevaluating whether those decisions still hold up under current conditions ...
Edge AI is strategically embedded in core IT and infrastructure spending across industries, according to the 2026 Edge AI Survey from ZEDEDA. The research shows that 83% of C-suite and IT executive respondents say edge AI is important to their core business strategy ...
