Summary

Datadog's GKE integration provides deep visibility into the health and performance of Kubernetes clusters, enabling users to monitor and alert on important metrics such as CPU, memory, volume, and ephemeral storage usage, as well as cluster health metrics. The integration comes with two out-of-the-box dashboards that visualize key cluster metrics, including control plane components, which provide insight into platform issues and help diagnose and debug issues in GKE clusters. Users can also ingest additional metrics through the Datadog Agent, providing even deeper visibility into Kubernetes resources and workloads. The integration is bundled together with the GCP integration and can be easily installed to start monitoring new GKE metrics today.
