Monitoring, Logging and Debugging with Kubernetes

We covered Prometheus more in-depth in the previous course, so we'll focus more on how it integrates with Kubernetes here.

The Prometheus Operator helps to integrate Prometheus monitoring directly with Kubernetes. There is also the kube-prometheus package which includes additional helpful components (including the Prometheus Operator) for monitoring, as well as the Prometheus Adapter.

Prometheus is not the only monitoring tool available for Kubernetes though - if you are interested in other options as well, check out this link.

On the next page, you'll get to perform an exercise to get monitoring set up with Prometheus, as well as think through designing a monitoring system of your own.
