Kubernetes Monitoring

Debug Kubernetes in minutes, not meetings.

Metrics, logs, events, and traces from every cluster, node, and pod. Correlated at ingestion. Searchable in one query. No tool-switching required.

Kloudfuse Kubernetes infrastructure view — auto-discovered pods, nodes and namespaces with live status

Kubernetes topology — clusters, nodes and pods with live resource usage

K8s-native observability, from the fleet to the failing pod.

K8s-native, not bolted on.

Pods, nodes, namespaces, and clusters auto-discovered with full cardinality. Every pod label, every replica stored natively. No premium tier for high-cardinality tags.

Prebuilt dashboards and alerts, day one.

Out-of-the-box dashboards for pods, nodes, namespaces, and workloads. Prebuilt alerts for CPU pressure, OOM kills, pod restart loops, and disk saturation. No manual setup.

One data plane. Infra + apps.

Container metrics join to APM spans and logs in one query. The CPU spike, the OOM-kill log, and the failing span — together.


Every cluster. Every signal. One pane.

A platform deep dive: fleet overview, per-resource drill-down, live dependencies, the agents you already run, and the facets that tie it all together.

Monitor your entire fleet. In one navigable view.

Four purpose-built views for Pods, Clusters, Nodes, and Namespaces. Each entity is auto-discovered and tagged with Kubernetes metadata the moment it appears — click any entity to drill into its metrics, logs, events, and traces without losing context.

  • Pods view — status, age, readiness, restart count, CPU% and memory% in one table
  • Clusters view — versions, node count and capacity vs. usage, to catch pressure early
  • Nodes view — scheduling status, roles and per-node consumption against capacity

Kubernetes monitoring, answered.

What Kubernetes data does Kloudfuse collect?

Kloudfuse collects four telemetry types from Kubernetes environments: metrics (via kubeletstats, hostmetrics, and k8s_cluster receivers), logs (from kubelet, containerd, and application containers with auto-extracted metadata), events (pod crashes, scheduling failures, scaling operations), and distributed traces with K8s metadata labels. All signals are automatically tagged with cluster, namespace, node, deployment, and pod-level facets at collection time.

Does Kloudfuse require a proprietary agent for Kubernetes monitoring?

No. Kloudfuse deploys OpenTelemetry Collectors as DaemonSets for telemetry collection. It also supports Datadog Agent, Filebeat, Fluent Bit, Fluentd, Victoria Metrics, Elastic APM, and New Relic agents — all without code changes. Bring what you already run.

Can Kloudfuse replace Prometheus for Kubernetes metrics?

Yes. Kloudfuse supports Prometheus remote_write and is fully PromQL-compliant, so teams can point existing Prometheus instances at Kloudfuse or replace the Prometheus server entirely. Existing Grafana dashboards import directly and continue to work with PromQL queries. kube-state-metrics is required for Advanced Analytics features.

How does Kloudfuse handle auto-discovery in dynamic environments?

Kloudfuse automatically detects new pods, namespaces, and workloads as they appear. Every telemetry signal is tagged with auto-extracted facets including kube_cluster_name, kube_namespace, kube_node, kube_deployment, kube_replica_set, kube_service, pod_name, pod_phase, and pod_status. No manual configuration is needed when clusters scale or workloads change.

Where does Kubernetes telemetry data live?

All telemetry data stays inside your VPC. Kloudfuse deploys as a Self-SaaS platform in your own cloud environment. No metrics, logs, events, or traces leave your infrastructure. This satisfies data residency requirements and eliminates compliance concerns around telemetry egress.
