Architecture

Standard Architecture

Robusta is installed and managed with Helm.

It has five components:

1. Two in-cluster Kubernetes deployments (see below)

2. Optional: Default Prometheus alerts, fine-tuned for Kubernetes (based on upstream but improved)

3. Optional: A bundled Prometheus stack (Prometheus Operator, AlertManager, and Grafana)

4. Optional: A client-side robusta cli

5. Optional: A cloud UI to view all alerts and events in your cluster
