🎉 k8s-observability-stack - Simplify Your Kubernetes Monitoring

🚀 Getting Started

Welcome to the k8s-observability-stack! This application helps you monitor your Kubernetes environment easily. It combines powerful tools like Prometheus, Grafana, AlertManager, and OpenTelemetry into one production-ready stack.

📋 Features

• Prometheus: Collects metrics from your applications.
• Grafana: Creates beautiful dashboards for visualizing data.
• AlertManager: Sends notifications based on your configured rules.
• OpenTelemetry: Provides a unified way to gather tracing data.

This stack is designed for users of all skill levels, even if you have no technical background. You can set it up and start monitoring your applications quickly.

🛠️ System Requirements

Before you begin, ensure your system meets these requirements:

• A running Kubernetes cluster (version 1.16 or higher)
• At least 2 CPUs available
• 4 GB of RAM minimum
• Helm installed (version 3.0 or higher)

If you’re not familiar with some of these terms, don’t worry. A Kubernetes cluster is just a group of machines that run your applications. Helm is a tool that helps us manage applications on Kubernetes.
