Kubernetes generates events when components like nodes, pods, or containers change state. These events provide key information about the health and status of a cluster, including container creation failures, eviction events, volume events, scheduling events, and unready node events. Monitoring these events can help troubleshoot issues affecting infrastructure. To effectively monitor Kubernetes events, tools like `kubectl` and Datadog can be used to filter, view, and analyze events in real-time, providing rich contextual clues for troubleshooting problems related to pod scheduling, resource constraints, access to external volumes, and other aspects of a Kubernetes environment. By identifying the types of events that help troubleshoot issues more efficiently, teams can reduce mean time to resolution (MTTR) when issues occur.
