Observability

This Promise provides Observability-as-a-Service by deploying kube-prometheus. The Promise has 2 field .spec.namespace, which is the namespace the Grafana and Prometheus installation and .spec.env which can be dev or prod.

To install, run the following command while targeting your Platform cluster:

kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/syntasso/promise-observability/main/promise.yaml

This will install the Prometheus Operator into the clusters. To verify it is installed, run the following command while targeting a worker cluster:

kubectl get deployment prometheus-operator
NAME                  READY   UP-TO-DATE   AVAILABLE   AGE
prometheus-operator   1/1     1            1           4h30m

To get an instance of Grafana and Prometheus make a resource request (dev by default), run the following command while targeting your Platform cluster:

kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/syntasso/promise-observability/main/resource-request.yaml

This will create an instance of Promethues and Grafana on the targeted worker cluster. This may take a few minutes.

Accessing UI

Prometheus and Grafana dashboards can be accessed quickly using kubectl port-forward. The following commands should be run while targeting your worker cluster.

Prometheus

$ kubectl --namespace monitoring port-forward svc/prometheus-k8s 9090

Then access via http://localhost:9090

Grafana

$ kubectl --namespace monitoring port-forward svc/grafana 3000

Then access via http://localhost:3000 and use the default grafana user:password of admin:admin.
