External monitoring

The Tezos-on-GKE project employs internal monitoring with Prometheus and Alertmanager.

A good complement to internal monitoring is external monitoring: a fully separated setup whose task is to monitor the baking operation as a standalone blockchain node.

Software such as [Tezos-network-monior] or Pyrometer can accomplish this task.

Auxiliary cluster

We maintain a separate kubernetes codebase to deploy external monitoring in a separate cluster:
