Where you configure them splits into two families, the Agent side and the cloud account side, and which one you choose changes both what you can see and how billing is counted.Foundation and data collectionContainer MonitoringA mechanism for following containers that are born and gone within seconds and keep moving between nodes, with the same hands-on approach as host monitoring. On Kubernetes, how the Agent is placed and how billing is counted are both specific to containers, so we cover those two points first.Infrastructure monitoringInfrastructure MonitoringInfrastructure Monitoring is the product that visualizes the state of servers, containers, and cloud resources at the host level.

With two pillars, CNM, which follows traffic flows on the cloud side, and NDM, which watches routers and switches via SNMP, it fills the blind spot of host monitoring.Infrastructure monitoring
