Kubernetes Pod Metrics - Overall

Monitor your Kubernetes pods at a high level. This dashboard provides a simplified view of crucial pod-level metrics such as CPU usage, memory utilization, filesystem consumption, and network IO.

To use this dashboard, ensure you have installed the k8s-infra Helm chart to collect pod metrics.

What This Dashboard Monitors

This dashboard tracks essential high-level pod metrics to help you:

Monitor Pod Performance: Track individual pod CPU and working set size (WSS) memory utilization.
Pod Storage: Monitor filesystem usage across pods.
Pod Network: Observe overall network inflow and outflow for each pod.

Metrics Included

Resources

Pod CPU usage: CPU utilization per pod
Pod memory usage (WSS): Working set size (WSS) memory consumption per pod
Pod filesystem usage: Storage usage on the pod's filesystem
Pod network IO: Receive and transmit bandwidth operations across pods

Next Steps

Set Alerts: Create alerts to notify you of sustained high pod CPU, out-of-memory (OOM) patterns, or excessive network traffic.
