Monitor your Kubernetes cluster nodes at a high level. This dashboard provides a simplified view of crucial node-level metrics such as CPU usage, memory utilization, filesystem consumption, and network IO across the cluster.
To use this dashboard, ensure you have installed the k8s-infra Helm chart to collect node metrics.

What This Dashboard Monitors
This dashboard tracks essential high-level node metrics to help you:
- Monitor Node Performance: Track total CPU and working set size (WSS) memory utilization.
- Node Storage: Monitor filesystem usage for cluster nodes.
- Node Network: Observe overall network inflow and outflow across the nodes.
Metrics Included
Resources
- Node CPU usage: CPU utilization per node
- Node memory usage (WSS): Working set size (WSS) memory consumption per node
- Node filesystem usage: Storage usage on the node's filesystem
- Node network IO: Receive and transmit bandwidth operations across nodes
Next Steps
- Set Alerts: Create alerts to notify you of sustained high node CPU or memory consumption.
