Abstract
A computer-implemented method of monitoring programmatic containers (containers) through executing a computer program in a kernel space is disclosed. The method comprises storing trace data in a memory buffer that is shared by the kernel space and a user space, the trace data being related to execution of a process associated with a container at an execution point of the process. The method also comprises retrieving container data related to the container through raw access of one or more kernel data structures when execution of the process is stopped. In addition, the method comprises storing the container data in association with the trace data in the memory buffer.
