A subscription Prometheus instance for Container Service provides the following built-in capabilities: performance monitoring suite and integration with Kubernetes events. The following features are available: cluster event collection, workload performance monitoring, ingress performance monitoring, and CoreDNS performance monitoring.

  • The first time you enable the subscription billing method, Performance Monitoring Suite and Cluster Event Collection are selected by default. After you purchase a subscription Prometheus instance, you can use the following features in the console: cluster event collection, workload performance monitoring, ingress performance monitoring, and CoreDNS performance monitoring. For more information, see Built-in capabilities: performance monitoring suite and integration with Kubernetes events.
  • If you have not selected Performance Monitoring Suite and Cluster Event Collection on the buy page but you need to use these features later, you can install exporters in the console. For more information, see Built-in capabilities: performance monitoring suite and integration with Kubernetes events.
  • If your Prometheus instance for Container Service uses the pay-as-you-go billing method, these features are not enabled by default. To use these features, you can install exporters in the console.
