AlertManager 0.30.0 0.28.0 Recommended Alerting Alerting (Integration with Prometheus) Mandatory Alertmanager is a component that works in conjunction with Prometheus to manage and dispatch alerts. It handles the routing and notification of alerts to various receivers.

Impact:

Not implementing alerting mechanisms can lead to delayed responses to critical issues, potentially resulting in service outages or degraded performance.

prometheus-kube-state-metric 2.18.0 2.16.0 Recommended Monitoring Kubernetes Metrics (for Prometheus) Mandatory Kube-state-metrics is a service that generates metrics about the state of various resources in a Kubernetes cluster. It's commonly used for monitoring and alerting purposes.

Impact:

Without these metrics, monitoring the health and performance of NFs could be challenging, making it harder to proactively address issues.

Prometheus Operator 0.85.0 0.83.0 Recommended Monitoring Prometheus Instance Management in Kubernetes Conditional The Prometheus Operator is used for managing Prometheus monitoring systems in Kubernetes. Prometheus Operator simplifies the configuration and management of Prometheus instances.

Impact:

Not using this operator could complicate the setup and management of monitoring solutions, increasing the risk of missed performance insights.

prometheus-node-exporter 1.10.2 1.9.1 Recommended Monitoring Node-Level Metrics for Prometheus Mandatory Node Exporter is a Prometheus exporter for collecting hardware and OS-level metrics from Linux hosts.

Impact:

Without node-level metrics, visibility into infrastructure performance would be limited, complicating the identification of resource bottlenecks.

Prometheus 3.9.0 3.6.0 Mandatory Monitoring Metrics/Monitoring System Mandatory Prometheus is a popular open-source monitoring and alerting toolkit. It collects and stores metrics from various sources and allows for alerting and querying.

Impact:
