Golden Signals with Hubble and Grafana

Learn to monitor the four Golden Signals for with Cilium, Hubble & Grafana.

One of the most important thing when running applications in an environment
like Kubernetes is to have good observability and deep insights.

However, for many organizations it can be challenging to update existing
applications to provide the observability you need. With Cilium, you can use
the Hubble Layer 7 visibility functionality to get Prometheus metrics for
your application without having to modify it at all.

In this lab you will learn how Cilium can provide metrics for an existing
application with and without tracing functionality, and how you can use
Grafana dashboards provided by Cilium to gain insight into how your
application is behaving.
