Description-en: analyze resource usage and performance characteristics of running containers
cAdvisor (Container Advisor) provides container users an understanding of
the resource usage and performance characteristics of their running
containers.
.
cAdvisor has native support for Docker containers and should support just
about any other container type out of the box.
.
cAdvisor also exposes container stats as Prometheus (http://prometheus.io)
metrics.
.
This package provides daemon that collects, aggregates, processes, and
exports information about running containers. Specifically, for each
container it keeps resource isolation parameters, historical resource
usage, histograms of complete historical resource usage and network
statistics. This data is exported by container and machine-wide.
