For full-stack monitoring of Kubernetes clusters, you need to roll-out DESK OneAgent on each cluster node. DESK offers OneAgent Operator to automate the management, updates, and roll-outs of new DESK OneAgent versions.
Full-stack vs. application-only monitoring
| Kubernetes full-stack monitoring
|
Kubernetes application-only monitoring
|
- For Kubernetes environments that allow the running of privileged containers on nodes
- Out-of-the-box, automated cluster and workload monitoring
- Set up once and monitor everything with DESK OneAgent
- DESK OneAgent auto-injection of code modules into pods for full-stack monitoring
- Rolled out via Kubernetes-native vehicles like OneAgent Operator or DaemonSet
|
- For locked-down K8s-based environments
- Workload monitoring on a per Docker image basis, no cluster nodes visibility
- DESK OneAgent code modules integrated with every Docker image
- DESK OneAgent universal-injection of code modules
- Rolled out as part of normal Kubernetes workloads
