  • kuberhealthy

    A Kubernetes operator for running synthetic checks as pods. Works great with Prometheus!

  • At the time of writing this post, two tools have Kubernetes native synthetic checks namely Kuberhealthy and Grafana Cloud. Kuberhealthy is an operator-based synthetic monitoring tool that uses custom resources called Kuberhealthy checks (khchecks), while Grafana cloud uses agents to gather data from the probes that periodically check the pre-defined endpoints. Kuberhealthy provides a lot more synthetic checks in comparison to Grafana Cloud and also it is an open-source option too. Thus, we will explore synthetic monitoring in the Kubernetes clusters with the help of Kuberhealthy.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
