Kubernetes Monitoring

Monitor and troubleshoot your fleet with dashboards and alerts that you don’t have to create. View resource usage, and identify issues quickly. The Kubernetes Monitoring application is available in Grafana Cloud.

Overview

The Kubernetes Monitoring app gives you what you need to understand and manage your infrastructure, including:

  • A single platform for complete monitoring and visibility. You can check the health of your Kubernetes objects and troubleshoot issues without leaving the app. This helps you solve problems faster and with less effort.

  • A ready-to-use experience that includes tools for tracking cost, resource efficiency, jobs, and energy use. You also get built-in alerts, alert rules that define when alerts fire, recording rules that pre-compute query results, and cost and resource-use forecasts.
