Troubleshooting & Debugging Microservices in Kubernetes

Explore troubleshooting and debugging techniques for microservices in Kubernetes with this 50-minute conference talk from GOTO Berlin 2018. Learn how to diagnose and manage production issues at scale, drawing from Google's decade-long experience with containerized Java applications. Discover tools and infrastructure developed by Google for effective management, troubleshooting, and debugging of containerized microservices. Follow along with a demo application deployment, covering topics such as load balancing, namespaces, container inspection, centralized logging, metadata analysis, and digital tracing. Gain insights into handling exceptions, restarting microservices, investigating issues through port forwarding, and scaling strategies. Equip yourself with the knowledge to become a detective in the complex world of microservices debugging in cloud environments.
