# Part 5: Visibility & Monitoring

## What Will You Do  
In this part, you will explore the integrated visibility and monitoring capabilities of the platform. Specifically, you will explore the dashboards that provide you access to both critical summary and trends.

- You will start with a "bird's eye view" and contextually click in one level at a time, going deeper and deeper.
- Critical metrics are automatically scraped and aggregated at the controller in a centralized time series database (TSDB)
- Interactive, real time access to this data is provided

## Org Dashboard  
- Click on **Home -> Dashboards** to view all clusters, projects, user activity, resource utilization and events in the Project.

You should see something like the example below.

## Project Dashboard  
- Select a Project and Click **Go To Project** to view all clusters, projects, user activity, application, workloads and events across the entire Project. You should see something like the example below.

## Cluster Dashboard  
In your project, click on **Infrastructure -> Clusters**

You should see something like the example below providing an overview of critical, operational metrics for your cluster.

## Node Dashboard  
In the cluster dashboard, click on **Nodes**. This will provide you an overview of all the nodes in the cluster. You should see something like the example below.

- Click on **Overview** for one of your nodes

This will provide you with a dashboard for the node.

## k8s Resources  
Click on the **Resources** tab. This will provide you access to an "integrated Kubernetes dashboard" where you can view the k8s resources organized by type, by namespace etc.

## Pod Dashboard  
By default, the k8s dashboard will list the pods in the "kube-system" namespace. Click on the "cert-manager" pod to view the Pod dashboard. You should see something like the example below.

## Container Dashboard  
Click on "Configuration" for the pod in the pod dashboard

Now, click on the container in the configuration to go to the "container dashboard". You should see something like the example below.

## Recap  
Congratulations! At this point, you have successfully accessed the integrated dashboards for visibility and monitoring.
