# Telemetry technology stack
|
|
|
|
Various telemetry tools are included in the technology stack of this repository.
|
|
|
|
## kube-prometheus-stack: prometheus, grafana, dashboards
|
|
|
|
Kube-prometheus-stack contains Kubernetes manifests, Prometheus and Grafana, including preconfigured dashboards.
|
|
|
|
### Kube-prometheus-stack Overview
|
|
Grafana is an open-source monitoring solution that enables viusalization of metrics and logs.
|
|
Prometheus is an open-source monitoring and alerting system which collects metrics from services and allows the metrics to be shown in Grafana.
|
|
|
|
### Adding your own dashboards
|
|
Examples for additional preconfigured dashboards can be found in the folder [dashboards](https://forgejo.edf-bootstrap.cx.fg1.ffm.osc.live/DevFW-CICD/stacks/src/branch/development/template/stacks/monitoring/kube-prometheus/dashboards).
|
|
|
|
It is possible to add your own dashboards by putting them into the same folder.
|
|
|
|
- Dashboards must be in JSON format. To add your own dashboard create a new ConfigMap in YAML format using one of the examples as a blueprint.
|
|
- The new dashboard in JSON format has to be added as the value for data.k8s-dashboard-[...].json like in the examples.
|
|
(It is important to use a unique name for data.k8s-dashboard-[...].json for each dashboard.)
|
|
|
|
Currently the preconfigured dashboards include several examples for Loki and Nginx-Ingress metrics.
|
|
|
|
