Monitoring Applications in Google Container Service using Appdynamics

[traiano]

Hi All

 I'm in process of deploying applications to Google's container service (GKE - essentially kubernetes).

 I need to monitor these containerized applications using Appdynamics, however, I'm not sure what is the best way to approach integrating these applications with appdynamics monitoring, i.e, do I:

 a) Build my app container images to include an appdynamics agent? If so, where can I find documentation on this?

 b) Stream logs from the docker container to appdynamics? If so, where can I find documentation on this?

Please note, in the above case I'm interested in the application inside the container, rather than the container metrics itself.

Any documentation for deploying Appdynamics specific to Google's Container Service (GKE) Would be appreciated as well!

Thanks,

T.

Thanks. I was looking more for this:

But these links are of some informational value.
