Openshift comes with a pre-configured monitoring stack powered by Prometheus and Grafana. Openshift Monitoring manages the collection and visualization of internal metrics like resource utilization, which can be leveraged to create alerts and used as the source of data for autoscaling. This is generally a cheaper and more powerful alternative to the native monitoring systems provided by the hyperscalers like CloudWatch and Azure Monitoring. Like other RedHat's managed operators, it comes already integrated with Openshift RBAC and authentication. The best part is it can be managed through GitOps by using the provided, super simple CRDs.
