Overview
Included in Infrastructure monitoring is the ability to monitor Kubernetes (K8s) clusters. If you use K8s clusters to distribute resources across multiple nodes, you can use SolarWinds Observability SaaS to monitor the resource usage, responsiveness, and error rate of your cluster and its nodes.
To monitor a K8s cluster, install a SolarWinds Observability SaaS Kubernetes Collector on your cluster. The collector gathers Prometheus-compatible metrics, events, and logs and sends them to SolarWinds Observability.
Highlights
- Comprehensive visibility: Unified data from across the environment with service relationship views, dependency maps, and multi-level drill-downs.
- Easy to use: Quick to install, auto-instrumented, and easy to expand with support for open-source technologies.
- Built-in intelligence: AIOps, enhanced with a powerful machine learning engine that helps surface real problems fast and accurately.

EKS add-on
An add-on is software that provides supporting operational capabilities to Kubernetes applications but isn't specific to the application. This includes software like observability agents or Kubernetes drivers that allow the cluster to interact with underlying AWS resources for networking, compute, and storage. Add-on software is typically built and maintained by the Kubernetes community, cloud providers like AWS, or third-party vendors. Amazon EKS add-ons provide installation and management of a curated set of add-ons for Amazon EKS clusters. All Amazon EKS add-ons include the latest security patches and bug fixes, and are validated by AWS to work with Amazon EKS. Amazon EKS add-ons allow you to consistently ensure that your Amazon EKS clusters are secure and stable and reduce the amount of work that you need to do to install, configure, and update add-ons.
