Monitor Tanzu Kubernetes Grid on vSphere with Datadog

What's this blog post about?

VMware's vSphere and Tanzu Kubernetes Grid (TKG) allow enterprises to combine the economic advantages of virtual machines with the agility, portability, and scalability provided by Kubernetes. Datadog now supports monitoring TKG clusters deployed on vSphere as well as their underlying VM resources. The new out-of-the-box dashboard provides a comprehensive overview of the entire TKG and vSphere environment, enabling users to monitor key data on TKG clusters and host VMs in real time. Additionally, dedicated overviews for pods and containers provide detailed visibility into their states and performance, allowing users to optimize and troubleshoot their vSphere environment's Kubernetes resources. The vSphere overview leverages metrics and events to provide critical visibility into the VMs and bare-metal hypervisors that underpin TKG environments.
