🔍 When top Lies and Logs Stay Quiet: Use Sysdig

Publish Date: Aug 24

Ever had a service “stick” while CPU, logs, and metrics all looked fine?

That’s when I grab sysdig — an X-ray for Linux that hooks syscalls and shows:

  • who is reading/writing files 📂
  • which connections are slow or stuck 🌐
  • which processes actually burn CPU 🔥
  • which containers misbehave 🐳

In my latest post I show:

  • minimal install steps
  • the short loop: capture → filter → view leaders → confirm with details
  • 3 real-world scenarios: slow disk ops, sticky network, unclear CPU spikes
