Kubesense

Azure

Every Azure resource type KubeSense discovers and every metric it collects, with the provider-side query detail behind each one.

Overview

KubeSense collects 364 metrics across 30 resource types from Azure, reading them from Azure Monitor.

Collection is read-only and agentless: resources are discovered through the provider's own management APIs, and nothing is installed in your Azure account. Every metric below is requested only for the resource types you enable.

Resources collected

31 resource types are available, 31 of them with metrics. Each row is one toggle on the integration's Resource Types selector; see Resource & Metric Collection for connecting the account itself.

Discovered as lists the entity kinds a toggle produces — the kinds you filter on in the Infrastructure explorer. One toggle can yield several, which is why the 30 metric tables below outnumber the toggles here.

Metrics by resource type

Tiers are set per resource type on the integration: Core is the default, and Expanded is a superset adding deeper per-service detail. A metric that depends on an optional provider feature — Enhanced Monitoring on RDS, Container Insights on ECS and EKS, Atlas Search, the Prometheus plugin on Kong — returns nothing until that feature is enabled, and KubeSense simply records nothing for it.
