AppFormix CEO Sumeet Singh: Monitoring Containers and Noisy Neighbors

Episode Summary

The deep complexities that come with container orchestration surfaces when defining how to solve noisy neighbor problems on scaled out, distributed platforms. It's a reality that became evident at Intel's Cloud Day yesterday in San Francisco during a conversation with Sumeet Singh, the CEO of AppFormix, a performance monitoring company. AppFormix has developed a way to use Intel's new Resource Director Technology (RDT) for addressing noisy neighbor problems by monitoring containers on the processor itself. RDT provides visibility into the cache and the memory bandwidth that is used by applications, virtual machines and containers.
