How to link K8s with monitoring tools

 Regarding the question "is there any extra layer in kubernetes to link with prometheus," the answer is no. Prometheus is a data collection and monitoring system that can be used with Kubernetes, but there is no additional layer needed. To set up Prometheus with Kubernetes, you can use Helm charts, which allow you to install and configure Prometheus in a Kubernetes cluster. Prometheus can then be used to collect metrics about Kubernetes pods, services, and other resources. In addition, you can use Grafana to visualize these metrics and gain insights into the health and performance of your Kubernetes applications.


What Is a Kubernetes Service Mesh? A Kubernetes service mesh is a dedicated infrastructure layer designed to manage, observe, and control communication between microservices within a Kubernetes cluster.
