Grafana Alerts

We currently use Grafana's zero-config out-of-the-box Kubernetes monitoring solution.

This comes with several sane default alerts configured by Grafana, eg. for CPU/Memory usage and crash loops.

Viewing/Editing Alerts

_{Default Grafana Alerts for Kubernetes}

Alerts can be viewed by going to the Grafana Dashboard and clicking on Alerting > Alert rules.

Alerts can also be edited on this page. By default, these alert rules are created and managed by Grafana.

Alert notifications can be edited by going to the Contact points and Notification policies pages.
