Kubernetes monitoring solutions are tools and platforms designed to help you monitor and observe the health, performance, and behavior of your Kubernetes clusters and the applications running within them. These solutions provide insights into various aspects of your Kubernetes environment, such as resource utilization, application metrics, logs, and more. Here are some popular Kubernetes monitoring solutions:

  1. Prometheus:

    • An open-source monitoring and alerting toolkit.
    • Collects metrics from various sources, including Kubernetes nodes, pods, and services.
    • Provides a powerful querying language (PromQL) for analyzing metrics data.
    • Integrates with Grafana for creating dashboards and visualizations.

  2. Grafana:

    • A popular open-source platform for creating dashboards and visualizing time-series data.
    • Works well with data sources like Prometheus and other monitoring systems.
    • Allows you to create custom dashboards to visualize Kubernetes and application metrics.

  3. Elastic Stack (ELK Stack):

    • Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana are commonly used components for log aggregation, searching, and visualization.
    • Collects and indexes logs from Kubernetes pods and containers.
    • Provides powerful search and visualization capabilities.

  4. Datadog:

    • A cloud-based monitoring and analytics platform.
    • Supports Kubernetes monitoring with integrations for metrics, traces, and logs.
    • Offers customizable dashboards, alerts, and anomaly detection.

  5. New Relic:

    • A cloud-based observability platform.
    • Offers Kubernetes monitoring, including application performance monitoring (APM) and infrastructure monitoring.
    • Provides insights into application performance and resource utilization.

  6. Sysdig:

    • Offers container monitoring and security solutions.
    • Provides deep visibility into containers, Kubernetes, and cloud-native environments.
    • Supports monitoring, troubleshooting, and security enforcement.

  7. Dynatrace:

    • An AI-driven observability platform.
    • Provides automatic monitoring and analysis of Kubernetes environments.
    • Offers performance optimization, anomaly detection, and root cause analysis.

  8. Prometheus Operator:

    • An operator for managing Prometheus instances in a Kubernetes cluster.
    • Simplifies the deployment and management of Prometheus for monitoring.
    • Provides features like automated service discovery and dynamic configuration.

  9. Kiali:

    • A service mesh observability and visualization tool.
    • Works well with Istio and other service mesh solutions.
    • Provides insights into traffic flow, topology, and health of microservices.

These are just a few examples of Kubernetes monitoring solutions available. When choosing a monitoring solution, consider factors such as ease of setup, scalability, data retention, visualization capabilities, and integration with other tools in your observability stack. The choice of a monitoring solution depends on your specific requirements and preferences.

 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++   ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Various option in building a Kubernetes cluster .  There a lot of ways to setup Kubernetes We can setup locally on our laptops or on virtual machines using solutions like Minicube, or Micro k8s,  The kubeadm tool is used to Bootstrap and manage production grade kubernetes clusters . There are also hosted solutions for Kubernetes cluster . In the cloud environment   We also have a demo of provisioning kubernetes cluster on GCP . So you may really follow any of these approaches. As part of this course we give you a real Kubernetes cluster right in your browser with a click of a button without having to  set anything up. We will use the Mini-Kube option which is the easiest way to get started with the Kubernetes system . Before we head to the demo , it is a good understand how it works , earlier we spoke abou...

Kubernetes | Containers - Container D and Docker

Image
 ctr | nerctl | crictl  What are these cli tools and which one should you be using.  Kubernetes Introduced something called Container run time interface - CRI   CRI Allowed any vendor to work as a container run time from kubernetes as long as they followed the standard as long as they adhered to the OCI standards.  OCI : Stands for Open Container Initiative   It consists of a image spec and a run time spec Image Spec : Is how an image should be built Runtime Spec : specified how a run time should be developed Keeping these standards in mind any one can build a run time . Therefore RKT and Container run time adhered to the OCI standards and were then supported as container run time for kubernetes via the CRI However Docker wasnt build to support the CRI standards . Docker was build way before CRI was introduced and Docker still was the dominant container tool used by most so Kubernetes had to continue to support docker as well . Therefore kubernetes in...
