Metrics
A metric explorer scoped by entity type rather than by raw metric name, so you start from the thing you are debugging.
Entity levels
Section titled “Entity levels”Kubernetes metrics resolve at four levels:
- host
- node
- pod
- container
Picking the level first is what stops you summing a container gauge across a node and getting a number that means nothing.
Building a view
Section titled “Building a view”- Metric name picker, scoped to the chosen entity type.
- Group-by chips — split a series by namespace, workload, node, or any tag.
- Tag search — filter to the subset you care about.
- Chart type — line, area or bar.
- Sparkline tiles for at-a-glance values, expanding into full series charts.
The time range is shared with Traces and Logs.
Per-cluster isolation
Section titled “Per-cluster isolation”Metrics are isolated per cluster by tag, so a workload with the same name in two clusters never merges into one series.
From the CLI
Section titled “From the CLI”rtz metrics list --entity-type K8S_PODrtz metrics query k8s.pod.memory.usage --entity-type K8S_POD --group-by k8s.pod.name --agg max
