Blog post from New Relic
The text discusses the integration of Prometheus, an open-source monitoring tool widely used in Kubernetes environments, with New Relic's platform via the Prometheus OpenMetrics integration. This integration allows users to send metrics directly from Prometheus to New Relic for enhanced storage, visualization, and correlation with other telemetry data, simplifying the management and scaling challenges associated with Prometheus. The document outlines the installation process within a Kubernetes cluster and details how users can query and visualize the metrics using New Relic's tools. Additionally, it highlights various use cases for the integration, such as monitoring Kubernetes' etcd, Horizontal Pod Autoscaler (HPA), and node readiness, while emphasizing New Relic's contribution to the open-source community and inviting further collaboration.
