Learn-Chaos-Engineering-Series VS octant

Let us begin by installing LitmusChaos in litmus namespace. You can install LitmusChaos from here. By default, the services litmusportal-frontend-service and litmusportal-server-service are exposed as NodePort. We need to expose it as ClusterIP. I have already changed the type and kept it in my GitHub repo. Let us apply that to our cluster using the below command.

I just can't understand why people don't give Octant (https://octant.dev/) a try.

Have you seen Octant https://octant.dev/? (It's a question not a recommendation).

Octant

Like the Kubernetes Dashboard, Octant is an open-source web interface for visualizing your clusters and applications. The solution supports multiple plugins via a core gRPC API, making Octant extensible and richly featured. Like other tools, it provides real-time updates on the health and performance of your cluster’s objects plus related objects. This detailed metrics tracking is meant to simplify the debugging process and highlight problems before they become threatening. Building off of kubectl and kustomize, Octant is a simple and reliable tool for managing the Kubernetes system as a whole.

Octant is one of the best-known tools in the Kubernetes dashboard space. It’s a project that Bryan Liles built a lot of back when he was at Heptio. I remember Bryan talking on Twitter about a new tool he was working on that would help folks think about what was running in their Kubernetes clusters, and that was Octant. VMWare acquired Heptio after that, and now Bryan and Octant are both at VMWare.

Let us wait for a few moments before the URL is reachable. Meanwhile, let us install Octant from here.

If you’re looking for a set of valuable tools that collectively work as a powerful dashboard, Octant may be ideal.
