The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Do we have any Prometheus metric to get the kubernetes cluster-level CPU/Memory requests/limits?
I'd suggest looking at the queries used by the kubernetes mixin dashboards for inspiration.

How do you set up Grafana alert for your cluster? Which mixins library?
Came across this lib, but realized the last update was 4 years ago.

I need to create an alerting setup for kubernetes nodes cpu utilisation. Can someone give some alerting queries to set it up?
Take a look at the kubernetes mixins to get an idea and/or starting point

The last step is to use the Mixin dashboard to visualize the usage of PV, you can get it from here

How to silence Prometheus Alertmanager using config files?
It's working good so far, except for the annoying CPUThrottlingHigh alert that is firing for many pods (including the own Prometheus' config-reloaders containers). This alert is currently under discussion, and I want to silence its notifications for now.

The Dhall Configuration Language
I think it might still have issues figuring out that it needs to apply CRDs first: https://github.com/grafana/tanka/issues/246 Besides that, I found it super-handy for deploying https://github.com/prometheus-operator/prometheus-operator and https://github.com/kubernetes-monitoring/kubernetes-mixin

Prometheus Definitive Guide Part III - Prometheus Operator
These all standard dashboards are basically generated from the kubernetes-mixin project.

What is the ultimate list of alerts when monitoring an on-premise k8s cluster?
I would suggest looking at the Kubernetes Mixin: https://github.com/kubernetes-monitoring/kubernetes-mixin, it has both alerts and Grafana dashboards.

Upgrading Hundreds of Kubernetes Clusters
The last one is mostly an observability stack with Prometheus, Metric server, and Prometheus adapter to have excellent insights into what is happening on the cluster. You can reuse the same stack for autoscaling by repurposing all the data collected for monitoring.

Smart-Cash project -Adding monitoring to EKS using Prometheus operator
On the other hand, the Kube-prometheus project provides documentation and scripts to operate end-to-end Kubernetes cluster monitoring using the Prometheus Operator, making easier the process of monitoring the Kubernetes cluster.

Scaling Temporal: The Basics
For our load testing we’ve deployed Temporal on Kubernetes, and we’re using MySQL for the persistence backend. The MySQL instance has 4 CPU cores and 32GB RAM, and each Temporal service (Frontend, History, Matching, and Worker) has 2 pods, with requests for 1 CPU core and 1GB RAM as a starting point. We’re not setting CPU limits for our pods—see our upcoming Temporal on Kubernetes post for more details on why. For monitoring we’ll use Prometheus and Grafana, installed via the kube-prometheus stack, giving us some useful Kubernetes metrics.

How do you set up Grafana alert for your cluster? Which mixins library?
The 2 most common approaches I have seen are kube-prometheus-stack and kube-prometheus..

Issues with "victoria-metrics-k8s-stack", monitoring k8s targets
- I'm missing a lot of the Grafana dashboards that are provisioned during the deployment, not sure why as it has worked before, and wanted to add them after install... I believe it's different ConfigMaps like the one in kube-prometheus but I was wondering if there's a way to force provisioning them all again at once (multiple k8s, node_exporter, vm, etc)?
-
what metrics are most important for checking kubernetes cluster health?
Check out the kube Prometheus project -- https://github.com/prometheus-operator/kube-prometheus It's a bit heavy, but the included recording rules and dashboards give you a great start at understanding your cluster.
