Kubernetes overview sample dashboard with the new Kubernetes metric set

Hi Folks,

Please check my new Kubernetes overview dashbord in the live Demo. Inspiration came form @florian_g

github post.

dynatrace-api/metric-expressions-for-k8s.md at master · Dynatrace/dynatrace-api · GitHub .

Some pics:

It was developed on a classicfullstack instrumented openshift. Kubernetes log metrics are required for the full use (or you can remove it from the dashborad after clone 😉 ) . Example:

Play with the dashboard time frame, dashboard tiles custom time frames, thresholds and colouring.

In the data explorer I tried to use readable metric expressions:

(
builtin:containers.memory.residentSetBytes:avg:parents:parents:splitBy("dt.entity.cloud_application"):sum
/ builtin:kubernetes.workload.limits_memory:avg:splitBy("dt.entity.cloud_application"):sum
* 100
)
:splitBy("dt.entity.cloud_application")
:setUnit(Percent)
:sort(value(avg,descending))
:limit(10)

I hope it will be usefull and you can reuse it (mybe parts) in the every day life monitoring.

Br, Mizső

great job @Mizső - we also used the chance of using the new metrics in the preset dashboards to give them a slight overhaul. Any feedback is welcome - there's now also a link to a form within the dashboards for providing feedback 🙂 If you're running on Saas, you should already have the new layout in your tenant 🙂

Hi @florian_g,

Thanks for the info. My clinets are on managed only. 😞 Two weeks later I will have it in 1.252 managed. 🙂

To be honest I have already checked it quickly in the live demo 1.251 environment. 😉

Have a nice weekend.
