TLDR Johnson had issues deploying metrics dashboards for k8s using an example from a GitHub repo. Prabhat suggested using kube-prometheus-stack for data sending and mentioned a future update with prebuilt dashboards based on the otel-collector.
These dashboards require data being sent from prometheus using kube-prometheus-stack
We will be shipping prebuilt dashboards based on otel-collector soon
like next week
What are you using to send metric data to OpenObserve ?
I'm currently using OTEL collector
Would there be any issues if I deploy the kube-prometheus-stack and OTEL collector?
no
you will just have duplicate data
in different streams
so no worries
is this a self hosted installation?
Correct, this is a self-hosted k8s deployment using helm
you will be fine
Got it, thank you! Amazing product btw!
Thank you
Are you using it just for metrics ?
Nope, we're thinking about using it for log and APM as well
Along with the RUM feature if that is available
awesome. all are available
Check out automatic instrumentation feature as well
Will do, thanks again!
Hi Prabhat, I added the kube-prometheus-stack and was able to see some data show up on the dashboards this time but there are a few panels that still doesn't show..
probably metric names might have changed in the latest kube-prometheus-stack . This is also the reason, we moved to a pre-configured otel-collector bundled by our team. So dashboarding becomes much easier. I am working on the otel-collector based dashboards. Will be ready with them soon. Will let you know here.
Roger that, thanks!
Johnson
Tue, 14 Nov 2023 23:39:18 UTCHello, I'm working on deploying some metrics dashboards for k8s. I uploaded the example json ones from this but it seems like the information isn't showing..
I included some screenshots, please let me know if any other information is required, thank you!
