SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 1, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Honeycomb, a leading observability platform that enables engineering teams to find and solve problems they couldn't before, today announced it is launching Honeycomb for Kubernetes. This new capability enables platform engineers running Kubernetes and the developers building on it to correlate granular application issues in production code with their infrastructure layer. Honeycomb for Kubernetes is available now to all Honeycomb users.

Key Points: 
  • However, while infrastructure dashboards within application performance monitoring (APM) suites are effective for platform engineers monitoring Kubernetes, they lack detailed application context relevant to developers diagnosing and resolving software issues.
  • This correlation gap between Kubernetes application and infrastructure layers leads to increased operational backlog, strained resources, and decreased productivity.
  • "This blind spot serves as yet another glaring signal that observability platforms are better equipped than APM tools to provide comprehensive, granular context into how code behavior impacts application performance."
  • Honeycomb's approach to observability offers numerous advantages:
    Observability Efficiency: As teams adopt the complexity inherent in Kubernetes, Honeycomb helps observe their systems efficiently.
