Description

This dashboard monitors CoreDNS health and performance within a Kubernetes cluster, aggregating both node-level stability and per-instance resource usage. It emphasizes live request metrics such as coredns_dns_requests_total and response duration through coredns_proxy_request_duration_seconds_count, while also providing resource utilization insights via process_cpu_seconds_total and process_resident_memory_bytes for CPU and memory, respectively, and cache efficiency through coredns_cache_hits_total and coredns_cache_misses_total.
