Docker has given rise to a sprawling ecosystem of technology partners looking to advance the revolution Linux containers are delivering to the data center.
Weaveworks is one startup carving a niche in monitoring networks running those Linux containers.
The London-based company's Weave Cloud provides a SaaS solution to optimize container deployments and manage micro-services built with Docker.
Weaveworks just closed a $15 million funding round led by Alphabet's venture arm, formerly Google Ventures.
The company plans to use that money to build tools for deploying, monitoring and managing cloud-native container environments.
