I made a Grafana Master-dashboard to monitor my Kubernetes cluster.
Features:
- Health bar at the top, that will turn amber or red when things go wrong, and send push notifications to my phone
- CPU, Memory and Network utilization
- Database and Storage backup statuses
I also added CPU/Memory usage request monitoring so that I can tune how much CPU/Memory a pod requests in the cluster.
And active alerts
I’ve muted these two, I need to add a 3rd node with more CPU and ram, currently if one node goes down there isn’t enough redundancy for the cluster to just keep working.
Lots more detail here: https://erasmus.works/ It’s all Open-Source, leave a Star on my repo if you like what you see.
running pods: 98
Oof, my lab is lightweight compared to yours but I’ve been thinking of putting up a grafana for mine too. Would you mind sharing how much resources it takes to run and roughly how much storage does, let’s say, a month of data take? I know that it all depends on what one puts inside but just as a reference point
Preemptively responding to this, because I just know there’s going to be a comment about this.
Yes Yes I know, GitHub, screw GitHub, Screw Microslop. I am trying to move away from Big Tech as much as possible, but it’s a marathon not a sprint, and every win should be celebrated.
