By default, truefoundry helm chart comes with basic monitoring. We expose critical metrics using prometheus’s ServiceMonitors and PodMonitors and we also expose a Grafana dashboard to visualize all of this easliy.

​
Enable Monitoring

To enable monitoring in truefoundry helm chart, update the following in values of the installation: 
monitoring:
  enabled: true
  alertManager:
    secret:
      create: true
      data:
        API_URL: <SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL>
This setup by default comes with a Slack alerting channel, incase you want to setup different notification channel, please feel free to customize and disable the default one by patching following to values:
monitoring:
  alertManager:
    slackConfigs:
      enabled: false
Please request for SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL from TrueFoundry team incase you want TrueFoundry team to be paged for any incident in your hosted Control Plane.

​

To access the Grafana dashboard you can either install Grafana installation managed by TrueFoundry or import the dashboard into your exisitng Grafana.
  • To install new Grafana instance managed by TrueFoundry, navigate to Platform > Clusters, click on the control plane cluster and install Grafana from the Add-Ons tab.
  • To import the dashboard to exisitng Grafana - please find the dashboard.json here.
