Deploy Prometheus to gain observability
Open, Needs TriagePublic

Description

We want the service mesh to be observable.

Kubernetes, Calico (the network data plane for our service mesh), Kuma can send metrics to Prometheus:

Plan is to:

  • deploy Prometheus on Kubernetes cluster
  • enable Kuma metrics policy
  • send Calico metrics
  • send Kubernetes metrics
  • publish Grafana dashboards

Event Timeline

Independently of the 2020 plan for a service mesh, we're going to deploy Prometheus right now to gain observability on currently deployed services.

I've did some experiments this week-end on WindRiver, it's straightforward enough to deploy to be a big win.
