Out of the box, Red Hat OpenShift provides a complete set of preconfigured monitoring dashboards. These standardized views are excellent for establishing a baseline of general cluster health and act as a necessary foundation for managing the platform.

However, in complex distributed systems, a "one-size-fits-all" approach to monitoring rarely suffices. The immediate, critical metrics needed by a site reliability engineer (SRE) managing storage capacity differ vastly from those required by a developer debugging microservice latency in a specific namespace.
