Specifically, the article covers:

  • Monitoring the server layer using Redfish REST APIs or the Prometheus 'up' metric
  • Monitoring the Kubernetes layer using metrics from utilities like kube-state-metrics, node-exporter, and container-advisor
  • Monitoring O-RAN applications by either exposing Prometheus-compatible metrics for scraping or forwarding metrics using OpenTelemetry Protocol
