The integration requires SigNoz Azure agent version v0.0.11 or later and supports only AKS clusters with the resource type `Microsoft.ContainerService/managedClusters`. Users can enable log and metric collection through the SigNoz Azure integrations panel, with data appearing in a pre-built AKS Overview dashboard within minutes.", "body_md": "The Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) integration collects metrics and logs from your managed Kubernetes clusters. Once enabled, the SigNoz agent discovers AKS resources in your monitored resource groups and configures telemetry collection.\n\nThis integration requires SigNoz Azure agent version **v0.0.11** or later.\n\nNote: This integration is only for AKS clusters with resource type `Microsoft.ContainerService/managedClusters`\n\n.\n\nGetting started\n\nConnect your Azure subscription first. See [Azure One-Click Integrations](https://signoz.io/docs/integrations/azure/one-click-azure-integrations/) for setup instructions.\n\nOnce connected:\n\n- In SigNoz, navigate to\n**Integrations**>** Microsoft Azure**. - Select\n**Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)** from the left panel. - Toggle\n**Log Collection** and**Metric Collection** on.\n\nThe agent deploys the necessary Event Hubs and diagnostic settings in the background. Data starts flowing within a few minutes. Navigate to **Dashboards** and open the **Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) Overview** dashboard to confirm metrics are appearing.\n\nWhat's collected\n\n## Logs\n\n| Name | Path | Type |\n|---|---|---|\n| Resource ID | `resources.azure.resource.id` | string |\n\n## Metrics\n\n| Metric name | Unit | Type |\n|---|---|---|\n`azure_apiserver_cpu_usage_percentage_average` | Percent | Gauge |\n`azure_apiserver_cpu_usage_percentage_maximum` | Percent | Gauge |\n`azure_apiserver_current_inflight_requests_average` | Count | Gauge |\n`azure_apiserver_current_inflight_requests_total` | Count | Gauge |\n`azure_apiserver_memory_usage_percentage_average` | Percent | Gauge |\n`azure_apiserver_memory_usage_percentage_maximum` | Percent | Gauge |\n`azure_etcd_cpu_usage_percentage_average` | Percent | Gauge |\n`azure_etcd_cpu_usage_percentage_maximum` | Percent | Gauge |\n`azure_etcd_database_usage_percentage_average` | Percent | Gauge |\n`azure_etcd_database_usage_percentage_maximum` | Percent | Gauge |\n`azure_etcd_memory_usage_percentage_average` | Percent | Gauge |\n`azure_etcd_memory_usage_percentage_maximum` | Percent | Gauge |\n`azure_kube_node_status_allocatable_cpu_cores_average` | Count | Gauge |\n`azure_kube_node_status_allocatable_cpu_cores_total` | Count | Gauge |\n`azure_kube_node_status_allocatable_memory_bytes_average` | Bytes | Gauge |\n`azure_kube_node_status_allocatable_memory_bytes_total` | Bytes | Gauge |\n`azure_kube_node_status_condition_average` | Count | Gauge |\n`azure_kube_node_status_condition_total` | Count | Gauge |\n`azure_kube_pod_status_phase_average` | Count | Gauge |\n`azure_kube_pod_status_phase_total` | Count | Gauge |\n`azure_kube_pod_status_ready_average` | Count | Gauge |\n`azure_kube_pod_status_ready_total` | Count | Gauge |\n`azure_node_cpu_usage_millicores_average` | Count | Gauge |\n`azure_node_cpu_usage_millicores_maximum` | Count | Gauge |\n`azure_node_cpu_usage_percentage_average` | Percent | Gauge |\n`azure_node_cpu_usage_percentage_maximum` | Percent | Gauge |\n`azure_node_disk_usage_bytes_average` | Bytes | Gauge |\n`azure_node_disk_usage_bytes_maximum` | Bytes | Gauge |\n`azure_node_disk_usage_percentage_average` | Percent | Gauge |\n`azure_node_disk_usage_percentage_maximum` | Percent | Gauge |\n`azure_node_memory_rss_bytes_average` | Bytes | Gauge |\n`azure_node_memory_rss_bytes_maximum` | Bytes | Gauge |\n`azure_node_memory_rss_percentage_average` | Percent | Gauge |\n`azure_node_memory_rss_percentage_maximum` | Percent | Gauge |\n`azure_node_memory_working_set_bytes_average` | Bytes | Gauge |\n`azure_node_memory_working_set_bytes_maximum` | Bytes | Gauge |\n`azure_node_memory_working_set_percentage_average` | Percent | Gauge |\n`azure_node_memory_working_set_percentage_maximum` | Percent | Gauge |\n`azure_node_network_in_bytes_average` | Bytes | Gauge |\n`azure_node_network_in_bytes_maximum` | Bytes | Gauge |\n`azure_node_network_out_bytes_average` | Bytes | Gauge |\n`azure_node_network_out_bytes_maximum` | Bytes | Gauge |\n\nDashboards\n\nThe integration includes a pre-built AKS dashboard. Pre-built dashboards are locked and cannot be edited. To customize, use **Export JSON** from the dashboard menu and import it as a new dashboard.\n\nKey panels include:\n\n- Pod status (ready and phase)\n- Node status conditions and allocatable resources\n- Node CPU, memory (RSS and working set), disk, and network usage\n- API server inflight requests, CPU, and memory usage\n- etcd CPU, memory, and database usage\n\nNext steps\n\n[Create alerts](https://signoz.io/docs/alerts/)to get notified on node failures or high API server load[Build custom dashboards](https://signoz.io/docs/userguide/manage-dashboards/)to correlate cluster metrics with application traces\n\nGet Help\n\nIf you need help with the steps in this topic, please reach out to us on [SigNoz Community Slack](https://signoz.io/slack/).\n\nIf you are a SigNoz Cloud user, please use in product chat support located at the bottom right corner of your SigNoz instance or contact us at [cloud-support@signoz.io](mailto:cloud-support@signoz.io).", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/azure-kubernetes-service-aks-monitoring-with-signoz", "canonical_source": "https://signoz.io/docs/integrations/azure/aks", "published_at": "2026-06-10 00:00:00+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-06-11 17:59:02.704154+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["ai-infrastructure", "ai-tools", "mlops"], "entities": ["Azure Kubernetes Service", "SigNoz", "Microsoft Azure", "AKS"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/azure-kubernetes-service-aks-monitoring-with-signoz", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/azure-kubernetes-service-aks-monitoring-with-signoz.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/azure-kubernetes-service-aks-monitoring-with-signoz.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/azure-kubernetes-service-aks-monitoring-with-signoz.jsonld"}}
