The guide offers a streamlined process for using Grafana Cloud to monitor and troubleshoot Kubernetes clusters through a three-step approach. Initially, users are instructed to install the Kubernetes integration via Grafana Cloud's user interface, simplifying the setup with a walkthrough. Next, the Grafana Agent is configured to automatically scrape metrics from the cluster, bypassing the need for complex custom configurations. Users can further enhance their monitoring by deploying additional agents for logs and traces. Finally, the integration provides access to a variety of pre-built dashboards in Grafana Cloud, allowing users to visualize data on resource consumption and cluster operations at different levels, including pods and namespaces. The guide emphasizes Grafana Cloud's comprehensive range of integrations and features a free tier for users to explore its capabilities.
