Metrics Server is a cluster-wide aggregator of resource usage data. Metrics Server collects metrics from the Summary API, exposed by Kubelet on each node.

Prometheus, a CNCF project, is a systems and service monitoring system. It collects metrics from configured targets at given intervals, evaluates rule expressions, displays the results, and can trigger alerts if some condition is observed to be true.

This chart bootstraps a Prometheus deployment on a Kubernetes cluster using the Helm package manager.
