Hi,
Do you use appd to monitor Kubernetes cluster components such as API server, etc, scheduler, and controller manager? How much are the cluster agent metrics useful?

Hello Radhakrishnan,
Thank you for posting us.
Yes, the cluster agent will monitor your entire cluster and provide you the all the important metrics.
The Cluster Agent collects metrics and metadata for the entire cluster, including every node and namespace down to the container level. When you instrument applications with AppDynamics APM Agents, the Cluster Agent allows you to view both Kubernetes and APM metrics for those pods (if both the Cluster Agent and the APM Agents are reporting the data to the same account the Controller).
You can use Cluster Agent to:
Please find the document link where you can see detailed metrics that would collected by the cluster agent.

Please let us know if you would like to set up a call and learn the basic information regarding the agent. We have a CAC option where customers can have a call with our consultants and learn more about it.

Thanks @Rajesh.Ganapavarapu for your input.
It would be great to know what do you tell as a unique metric from appd cluster agent compared to the native kubernetes monitoring. What do you see as a selling factor here ?
