Enable Serverless Metrics in Apache OpenWhisk on Kubernetes with Prometheus
Learn how to enable serverless metrics in Apache OpenWhisk on Kubernetes using Prometheus in this informative conference talk. Explore the importance of metrics in serverless platforms, focusing on both system and user metrics that help operators and developers understand server-side operations. Discover the structure of Apache OpenWhisk, an open-source Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) platform deployable on Kubernetes, and its use of Kamon for metric collection. Gain insights into the types of metrics defined in OpenWhisk and the process of exporting them to Prometheus, a popular Kubernetes monitoring tool. Follow along with a live demonstration showcasing the integration of OpenWhisk, Prometheus, and Grafana for effective serverless metric monitoring and visualization.
