K8s Infra - Install

K8s-Infra is a set of observability components that help you monitor and gain insights into your Kubernetes clusters. This guide will walk you through the steps to deploy K8s-Infra using the official Helm Chart provided by SigNoz. By following these instructions, you'll be able to collect metrics, logs, and traces from your Kubernetes workloads and send them to your SigNoz backend for analysis.

To add the SigNoz Helm repository to your helm client, run the following command:

helm repo add signoz https://charts.signoz.io

If the chart is already present, update the chart to the latest version:

helm repo update

Based on how you are running SigNoz (e.g. SigNoz Cloud, in an independent VM or Kubernetes cluster), you have to provide the address to send data from the above receivers.

For generic Kubernetes clusters, you can use the following configuration:

override-values.yaml

global:
  cloud: others
  clusterName: <CLUSTER_NAME>
  deploymentEnvironment: <DEPLOYMENT_ENVIRONMENT>
otelCollectorEndpoint: ingest.{region}.signoz.cloud:443
otelInsecure: false
signozApiKey: <SIGNOZ_INGESTION_KEY>
presets:
  otlpExporter:
    enabled: true
  loggingExporter:
    enabled: false

Depending on the choice of your region for SigNoz cloud, the ingestion endpoint will vary according to this table.

Region	Endpoint
US	ingest.us.signoz.cloud:443
IN	ingest.in.signoz.cloud:443
EU	ingest.eu.signoz.cloud:443

📝 Note

Replace <SIGNOZ_INGESTION_KEY> with the one provided by SigNoz.
Replace <CLUSTER_NAME> with the name of the Kubernetes cluster or a unique identifier of the cluster.
Replace <DEPLOYMENT_ENVIRONMENT> with the deployment environment of your application. Example: "staging", "production", etc.

To install the k8s-infra chart with the above configuration, run the following command:

helm install my-release signoz/k8s-infra -f override-values.yaml
