In this video I installed Prometheus and Grafana using helm and studied k3s networking.

My goal was to make Grafana approachable via ingress using a fake domain and after a bit of tinkering it worked.

  • installed prometheus and grafana with kube-prometheus-stack helm chart
  • reflected on why I use k3s
  • gained understanding of k3s loadbalancing solution
  • configured /etc/hosts file to resolve to fake domain
  • configured k3s ingress to use fake local domain
  • struggled with ingress but figured it out in the end
  • successfully made grafana UI available on fake local domain grafana.homelab.nl
