What AWS AZ a Pod is in?

shakib — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 08:32:40 GMT

I'm trying to create a dashboard or a DQL query that gives me the AZ all of my pods are in. I see that in the EC2 Node metadata I can see what AZ those nodes are in, and of course I can see what AZ the pods running on that node are in, but I want the information in one single view with all of the pods (or filterable list).
Anyone know how I can achieve this with DQL or a dashboard query?

Hi @shakib ,

May be you can try this

fetch dt.entity.cloud_application_instance | fieldsAdd nodeid=runs_on[dt.entity.kubernetes_node] | lookup [fetch dt.entity.kubernetes_node| fields id, node.id = id, node.name = entity.name,cluster.id = belongs_to[dt.entity.host]], sourceField: nodeid, lookupField: node.id | fieldsRemove nodeid, lookup.id, lookup.node.id | fieldsRename host_id=lookup.cluster.id, hostname=lookup.node.name | lookup [fetch dt.entity.host | fields id,Az_id = belongs_to[dt.entity.aws_availability_zone]], sourceField:host_id,lookupField:id | fieldsRename az_id=lookup.Az_id, hostid=lookup.id | lookup [fetch dt.entity.aws_availability_zone], sourceField:az_id, lookupField:id | fieldsRename PodName=entity.name, availability_zone=lookup.entity.name | fieldsKeep PodName, hostname, availability_zone

You might get a result like this.
