Standalone Application
The Kubernetes Visibility Agent offers cutting-edge monitoring for Kubernetes resources, performing continuous discovery and promptly reporting changes. It keeps your Configuration Management Database (CMDB) up to date with the latest data for optimal accuracy. Upon deployment, the KVA sets up a Deployment resource in your cluster, featuring an Informer pod. This pod connects to the Kubernetes API server, efficiently receiving and processing resource events.
Achieve unparalleled visibility into your on-premises Kubernetes clusters and cloud deployments, including Amazon EKS, Google GKE, Azure AKS, Red Hat OpenShift, and Rancher. Enhance your resource management and operational efficiency with the Kubernetes Visibility Agent.
- The component reports continuously to the ServiceNow instance and populates the CMDB with Kubernetes resources in near real-time.
- Tested with multiple Kubernetes platforms: EKS, AKS, GKE, OKE, Openshift, and on-prem.
New
- Integrated Cilium with KVA to retrieve Kubernetes resource connectivity data for creating service maps
- Added the ability to automatically retire Kubernetes clusters and related resources when no activity is detected within a configurable time period
Changed
- Updated KVA licensing to an image-based model, replacing the previous container-based approach
