Kubernetes Monitoring and Alerting Made Easy with Splunk Observability Cloud and OpenTelemetry

Feb 5, 2025 By Splunk In Splunk
In this video, I'll show you how to quickly setup monitoring and alerting for your Kubernetes clusters using Splunk Observability Cloud. We’ll start by deploying the Splunk OpenTelemetry Collector using Helm, and then use the Kubernetes Navigator inside Splunk Observability Cloud to view the health of our cluster and the applications it’s hosting. I’ll demonstrate AutoDetect detectors and alerts by intentionally triggering an issue in the cluster and walk through the alerting process. We’ll review the alerts in Splunk Observability Cloud and then resolve the issue in the cluster.
