Kube-proxy Metrics
Collect metrics from Kubernetes Proxy server with Elastic Agent.
What is an Elastic integration?
This integration is powered by Elastic Agent. Elastic Agent is a single, unified way to add monitoring for logs, metrics, and other types of data to a host. It can also protect hosts from security threats, query data from operating systems, forward data from remote services or hardware, and more. Refer to our documentation for a detailed comparison between Beats and Elastic Agent.
Prefer to use Beats for this use case? See Filebeat modules for logs or Metricbeat modules for metrics.
See the integrations quick start guides to get started:
Metrics
proxy
This is the proxy dataset of the Kubernetes package. It collects metrics
from Kubernetes Proxy component.
An example event for proxy looks as following:
