Mimir

This page introduces Mimir in KubeStack+ and points you to the metrics how-to that uses it.

How it works

Stakater operates Mimir on the cluster as the long-term metrics store. Your application emits metrics through the OpenTelemetry SDK over OTLP; the in-cluster OpenTelemetry collector routes them to Mimir; you query them in Grafana through Forecastle with PromQL.

What you do

Instrument your application with the OpenTelemetry SDK and point it at the in-cluster collector via deployment.env in your values.yaml for the Stakater Application Helm Chart.
