After a month of working with Docker, Kubernetes, GitHub and Jenkins, to create development pipelines, now is its the time to integrate monitoring tools into the existing pipelines, so that we can even automate the monitoring actions on the cloud. First, let’s understand the working of the monitoring tools we are using:Prometheus is an open-source system monitoring and alerting toolkit originally built at SoundCloud.

Therefore we need to use a Persistent Volume Storage so that data stored does not get lost in the running pod fails.

For that first, we need to create a service to export the Prometheus using NodePort.

Using Kubernetes, we don’t need to worry about crashes, because that is the biggest advantage of using Kubernetes, and as we are using PVC, so there will be no data loss whatsoever.
