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
-
How to Monitor your k8s Persistent Volume Usage
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
- Kubernetes Monitoring
-
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.

10 Ways for Kubernetes Declarative Configuration Management
YTT - YTT is a templating tool that understands YAML structure. It helps you easily configure complex software via reusable templates and user provided values using the Starlark language.
-
Alternatives to Helm/Kustomize for complex Kubernetes Deployments
Adding https://carvel.dev/ytt/ to the list. I was happy using this tool as IMO it mixes good things from Helm and Kustomize, however the syntax is ugly and repelling my colleagues to have a closer look.

The YAML Document from Hell
> Templating yaml is a terrible, terrible idea
I've had a good time using ytt: https://carvel.dev/ytt/. It implements language-aware templating, which is IMO the only reasonable way to do it.
-
Creating Kubernetes Templates
`ytt` is part of the Carvel toolchain. https://carvel.dev/ytt/
-
Dealing with YAML overload
I agree with you on `you will want to see just plain texts instead of a bunch of templating token with hidden logic.` Which is why I think https://carvel.dev/ytt/ would be great. We could generate these templates in pipelines, or we could just make it easier to maintain what we have.

How to handle the lifecycle of multiple COTS
For more advanced configuration management you might be interested in ytt ( https://carvel.dev/ytt/ ) which is a "yaml-aware" templating tool. it lets you do "patches" via an overlay mechanism to add or remove specific yaml blocks, and it also lets you use a simplified python dialect for more complicated logic. With ytt you would put your DNS IP into a "data values" file and then run ytt to render it into the configs before handing them off to the deployment tool. e.g. `ytt -f | kubectl apply`
-
The Dhall Configuration Language
I said this above as well: ytt (https://carvel.dev/ytt/) lets you embed starlark into valid yaml, among other cute tricks for managing biz-logic in configs.
