Dashboard: Overview · Capacity · Reliability · Cost

The per-cluster dashboard follows a scan-then-dive rhythm — a summary layer that answers "is anything on fire?", with deep instrumentation below.

Each cluster’s dashboard is organized into sub-tabs built around a scan → dive rhythm: a summary layer up top answers the urgent question at a glance, and the detailed panels below let you drill into anything. Overview and Capacity are always there; Reliability appears when the cluster ships Hubble flow data, and Cost (beta) when it ships OpenCost data. A tab with nothing to show is hidden rather than rendered empty.

Sub-tabQuestion it answersNeeds
OverviewIs everything fine right now?Nothing beyond a connection; Metrics Server for live usage
CapacityHow is the cluster consuming, and is it sized right?Metrics history (the agent) for the trend charts
ReliabilityWhat is the cluster actually serving?Agent with Hubble enabled (Cilium)
Cost (beta)What does it cost, and what is idle?OpenCost data — see Cost

Overview — efficiency as the hero

The Overview tab: efficiency, workload health and what needs attention, on one screen.

Capacity: requests against real usage, per node and per workload.

Reliability — golden signals, honest colors

Reliability: the golden signals, with colors that only turn when something is actually wrong.
Reliability: the golden signals, with colors that only turn when something is actually wrong. KubeBolt 2.1.1

The Reliability tab is powered by Hubble flow data, so it appears only on agent-connected clusters with Hubble enabled (hubble.enabled=true on the agent chart). See Connecting clusters.

Shared behavior

The selected time range is shared between Capacity, Reliability and Cost and persists while you drill into resources, but resets to the 15-minute default on a fresh browser session — the daily scan never accidentally fires a 30-day query.

Cost (beta)

Spend, idle cost, cost per pod and money-priced rightsizing, from OpenCost data the agent ships. It is covered on its own page: Cost.
