hscloud monitoring
==================
Quick links
-----------
- *Old Global Dashboard*: [monitoring.hackerspace.pl](https://monitoring.hackerspace.pl) - old monitoring system, unrelated to this one, configured using Chef at management.hackerspace.pl (long since dead). This setup is supposed to replace it.
Architecture
------------
The hscloud monitoring solution is two-tiered:
- at the *global* tier we run metrics aggregation, long-term storage, dashboard and alerting.
- at the *agent* tier we collect metrics from various sources (possibly even lower tiered agents).
All agent-tier agents send metrics to all global instances.

Agent - cluster
---------------
Cluster agents are responsible from collecting Kubernetes cluster metrics. They run a prometheus server that scrapes kubelet/cadvisor/... metrics and send them off to global instances.
Global Instances
----------------
Global agents run Victoria Metrics, ingest metrics from all agents, and perform long-term storage. In the future they will also run Grafana and AlertManager.
