SESSION DESCRIPTION

Kubernetes Monitoring Using Managed Open Source Technologies by Siva Guruvareddiar
This session will explore monitoring Kubernetes using managed open-source technologies, such as Amazon-managed service for Prometheus and Amazon-managed Grafana.

Unlocking Full-stack Observability for Kubernetes Workloads by Abhinav Dubey
Kubernetes, despite its power for containerized deployments, can be challenging to navigate when overseeing workloads. Kubernetes dashboards bridge this gap by offering a centralized platform for visualizing your entire application ecosystem. Through data aggregation on deployments, pods, and other resources, these dashboards empower users to gain immediate insights into the health, resource usage, and potential issues across running workloads. Users can further delve into specific deployments or pods by examining logs, metrics, and configurations, facilitating in-depth troubleshooting, and informed decisions for scaling or optimizing deployments. This level of visibility empowers teams to effectively navigate their Kubernetes environment, ensuring application health and performance.
