Metrics Monitoring - Kube-Prometheus Stack¶
-
The Kube-Prometheus stack is a collection of Kubernetes manifests, Grafana dashboards, and Prometheus rules combined with documentation and scripts, that provide easy-to-operate, end-to-end Kubernetes cluster monitoring with Prometheus, using the Prometheus Operator.
-
Grafana allows users to query, visualize, and understand user metrics regardless of where they are stored. Grafana also enables creating, exploring, and sharing appealing dashboards with users, fostering a data-driven culture.
NOTE: The data retention size and period of Prometheus are respectively 7GB and 16 days.
