Containerization has revolutionized the way applications are deployed, making the process more flexible, scalable, and manageable. Kubernetes, as the leading container orchestration system, has become the standard for running cloud-native services. However, as the number of services and microservices grows, so does the need for efficient monitoring. This is why the combination of Prometheus + Grafana has become the go-to solution for observing infrastructure health.
In this article, we’ll explore how to set up Kubernetes cluster monitoring on a VPS using Prometheus and Grafana, the benefits of this approach, and why it’s essential for maintaining project stability.
