## Prerequisites

You will need a Kubernetes cluster, that's it! By default it is assumed, that the kubelet uses token authN and authZ, as otherwise Prometheus needs a client certificate, which gives it full access to the kubelet, rather than just the metrics. Token authN and authZ allows more fine grained and easier access control.

This means the kubelet configuration must contain these flags:
|
||||
|
||||
* `--authentication-token-webhook=true` This flag enables, that a `ServiceAccount` token can be used to authenticate against the kubelet(s).
|
||||
* `--authorization-mode=Webhook` This flag enables, that the kubelet will perform an RBAC request with the API to determine, whether the requesting entity (Prometheus in this case) is allow to access a resource, in specific for this project the `/metrics` endpoint.

This stack provides [resource metrics](https://github.com/kubernetes/metrics#resource-metrics-api) by deploying the [Prometheus Adapter](https://github.com/DirectXMan12/k8s-prometheus-adapter/).
|
||||
This adapter is an Extension API Server and Kubernetes needs to be have this feature enabled, otherwise the adapter has no effect, but is still deployed.
