billyteves/kube-utils-aws-mon repository overview

This currently supports the mon-put-instance-data.pl I don't recommend to use AWS credentials. You need to add in your EC2 instance role, a policy to be able to send data to CloudWatch this is the policy to be added in your policy list:

{
    "Action": "cloudwatch:PutMetricData",
    "Resource": "*",
    "Effect": "Allow"
}```

Here's an example configuration in Kubernetes. This should run as a DaemonSet. So that for every instance it will be deployed.

apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1 kind: DaemonSet metadata: name: kube-utils-aws-mon namespace: kube-system spec: template: metadata: labels: k8s-app: kube-aws-mon spec: dnsPolicy: Default containers: - name: kube-aws-mon image: billyteves/kube-utils-aws-mon:1.0.0 imagePullPolicy: Always env: - name: MONPUTCRONTIME value: "* * * * *" - name: MONPUTPARAMS value: " --mem-util --mem-used --mem-used-incl-cache-buff --memory-units=megabytes --swap-util --swap-used " terminationGracePeriodSeconds: 30

The value of `MONPUTCRONTIME` and `MONPUTPARAMS` are dynamic, it uses confd for configuration. So when you try to create this daemon, and you modified the default values, it will automatically reflected inside the `kube-utils-aws-mon` container. :)
