A cluster administrator can configure the monitoring stack with the supported configurations. {product-title} delivers monitoring best practices out of the box.
A set of alerts are included by default that immediately notify administrators about issues with a cluster. Default dashboards in the {product-title} web console include visual representations of cluster metrics to help you to quickly understand the state of your cluster. With the {product-title} web console, you can view and manage metrics, alerts, and review monitoring dashboards.
In the Observe section of {product-title} web console, you can access and manage monitoring features such as metrics, alerts, monitoring dashboards, and metrics targets.
After installing {product-title}, cluster administrators can optionally enable monitoring for user-defined projects. By using this feature, cluster administrators, developers, and other users can specify how services and pods are monitored in their own projects. As a cluster administrator, you can find answers to common problems such as user metrics unavailability and high consumption of disk space by Prometheus in Troubleshooting monitoring issues.
