### Create DNS Record

For this exercise we are hosting a zone in our Route 53 and we will create a new record that points to our Ingress host.

- Go to the hosted zone in your Route 53 or other DNS provider and create a CNAME record for your Ingress host that points to the Load Balancer FQDN we verified in the previous step.

## Step 2: Access Grafana

- Navigate to the Ingress host to access Grafana.
- Use "admin" for the username and the admin password you set in your custom kube-prometheus-stack-values.yaml file to view the Grafana dashboards.

- Navigate to Dashboards and select any dashboard to view the data.

Congratulations! You can now use Grafana to view the metrics monitored by your Kube Prometheus Stack.
