Logs are invaluable to IT teams as they are crucial in monitoring the health of your data and systems. Logging is extremely helpful in validating the health of your Kubernetes clusters. It also makes it easier for teams to generate alerts to ensure operational events are reviewed regularly or when there are peculiarities.solutions typically manage the operational burden of supplying redundant, highly available, and scalable In non-managed Kubernetes, it’s critical to monitor Master Nodes as they determine the life of a K8s cluster. Since AWS manages the master nodes and the control plane in EKS, admins have no open access to getting granular metrics on the master node. Kubernetes has a built-in set up to monitor outages via Kubelet which collects data on the state of pods, nodes, and containers and metrics can be accessed via the Metrics Server. Since the metric-server only captures the state of K8s resources in the short term, there’s still a need to capture metrics as a time-series for easier analysis and visualization. to many users due to the number of components involved. However, implementing an appropriate logging
plane. Log data from this component provides insight into request latency and volume, authorization
We will go over how to monitor EKS metrics using Sumo Logic in the final part of this series. For now, let’s go over our suggested metrics to collect via kube-state-metrics. For a complete list of all metrics and their descriptions, read the documentation here. Configuring a thorough logging setup is crucial to operating a production EKS cluster. Log data enables These tools typically run as software installed on the worker nodes, allowing them access to collect and resources. A production EKS setup should include enabling CloudTrail logging to ensure that all AWS
