Kubernetes Monitoring
Kubernetes monitoring is the practice of collecting, analyzing, and visualizing metrics, logs, and traces from Kubernetes clusters to ensure performance, reliability, and security. It involves tools and techniques to track the health of nodes, pods, containers, and applications running in a Kubernetes environment. This enables proactive issue detection, capacity planning, and optimization of resource usage in cloud-native deployments.
Developers should learn Kubernetes monitoring to maintain the stability and efficiency of containerized applications in production, as it helps identify bottlenecks, debug failures, and ensure service-level agreements (SLAs) are met. It is essential for DevOps and SRE roles to implement observability in microservices architectures, enabling real-time insights into cluster behavior and application performance.
