Troubleshoot with Kubernetes events

What's this blog post about?

Kubernetes generates events to document changes in its components like nodes, pods or containers. These events provide crucial information about the health and status of clusters, helping troubleshoot issues affecting infrastructure. However, as the scale of a Kubernetes environment increases, so does the volume of generated events. Monitoring these events can help identify problems related to pod scheduling, resource constraints, access to external volumes, and other aspects of the Kubernetes environment. Datadog provides comprehensive support for monitoring Kubernetes events, including real-time event collection, retention, filterable event feeds, custom metrics creation from events, monitors for critical events, and integration with timeseries and dashboards.
