ACM VS sysdig

Compares to Sysdig ACM seems like:

• Focus: Multi-cluster management and governance. Provides tools for managing multiple OpenShift clusters across different environments. Includes:

  • Policy management: Enforces consistent configurations and security policies across clusters.
  • Application management: Streamlines application deployments and rollouts.(This probably gonna be interest to look at for gold fall over)
  • Cost management: Optimizes resource usage and tracks costs.

  Primarily focused on managing clusters, not deep security analysis. But we have ACS

ACM manage multiple OpenShift clusters in a centralized way and enforce consistent policies, ACM is a better option. It provides tools for simplifying deployment, streamlining governance, and optimizing resource usage across your OpenShift landscape.

Advantage for ACM

• If we only need basic monitoring and already have ACS for security: ACM might be sufficient. It's user-friendly and offers centralized visibility across clusters.

For Sysdig:

custom dashboards or metrics: Sysdig offers greater flexibility and customization options.

Ask question:

1. Migration path: Does Red Hat offer a well-defined migration path from Sysdig to ACM, ensuring minimal disruption and data loss? How much effort would be required to transition existing data and configurations?

2. Does ACM offer the same level of in-depth visibility into container activity, application performance, and infrastructure health as Sysdig Monitor? Are the dashboards and metrics comparable? As Sysdig have a dashboard library which give us a really starting point especially for application team.

3. How does ACM handle custom metrics?
