Pods page in the Kubernetes view
The Pods page is designed to provide capacity management insights for the Kubernetes pod workloads. All the statistics on this page is the maximum value of the data point.
Each page contains additional tabs, each of which presents capacity and efficiency KPIs related to the resources relevant for the analyzed entity. By default, some columns are hidden. You can show or hide columns using the action menu
that is located next to the table title.
Capacity
Capacity metrics are displayed in the Capacity page. The Capacity tab is displayed by default, each time you access the Pods page.
