Monitor your Kubernetes clusters & pods with Netdata
Monitor your Kubernetes clusters & pods with Netdata
What is the Kubernetes?
Kubernetes is an open-source system for automating deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications.
Netdata is a monitoring and troubleshooting solution with an open-source Agent that can be installed on all your k8s clusters. Netdata’s prebuilt integration with Kubernetes features service discovery to quickly and easily visualize metrics and monitor services in your Kubernetes clusters as well as individual containers to help you identify patterns and uncover issues. Monitor and troubleshoot pod events, memory usage, CPU usage, and much more.

Why monitor Kubernetes with Netdata?
Monitor and troubleshoot Kubernetes with Netdata
Monitoring Kubernetes with Netdata alerts you to bottlenecks and issues before they affect your end users. Set up custom alarms to gauge the health status and potential threats to your clusters and pods. Notifications can be enabled to help you detect anomalies using metrics like pod events, memory usage, CPU usage, and more.
- Easily deploy Netdata on any k8s cluster, via our own Helm chart.
- Get metrics for the k8s “nodes”, i.e. usually virtual machines that compose a k8s cluster.
- Get metrics for k8s services that run on all k8s environments (kube-proxy, kubelet, CoreDNS).
Analyze Kubernetes performance with data visualization
Access all of your Kubernetes metrics with pre-built charts, or create custom dashboards for your team’s specific use case. Find root cause analysis answers with intuitive graphs of what’s going on within your infrastructure. Custom dashboards can be created using simple HTML. These dashboards are flexible and designed to capture metrics on all of your Netdata servers.
- Identify all k8s containers running on a cluster and monitor system metrics for each one of them with low-latency, per-second granularity.
- Instantly see metrics for individual, ephemeral k8s nodes as soon as they’re created by the k8s backend.
- Monitor up to 40 services running on k8s containers with zero configuration.
- New services can be added with minimum configuration, and you can start monitoring them instantly.
