Important restrictions
Requires your own Kubernetes cluster and separate metrics scraper/storage; it reports API object state, not full application tracing or node/container resource telemetry. Compute, storage and Prometheus infrastructure are not included.
Independent community listing, not affiliated with the provider. Always check the latest billing policy and quotas before enabling paid usage.
