Weave Scope is a zero-config, drop-in solution for visualizing, monitoring and controlling your Docker containers in your cloud-native application.  Scope allows you intuitively understand your microservices based application and easily identify and correct issues to ensure the stability and performance of your applications.

Today, we’re releasing Weave Scope 0.12 with rich contextual details, deep linking and navigation.

Rich contextual information

With version 0.12 we’ve introduced a completely redesigned contextual details view for you containers; metrics have been brought front and center, the tags and metadata UX redefined and children of your container/host arranges in expandable, sortable tables. This makes it easy to find the container using the most CPU or memory on a given host, for example.

Deep linking within Scope

Version 0.12 also adds deep linking between the various topologies Scope natively understands. This allows users to easily navigate from containers, to hosts, processes, images, pods and services – and back again.

In addition, we’ve made significant enhancements to our Kubernetes integration, extended metrics to include process CPU and memory, as well as numerous bug fixes and performance improvements.
