Sending Metrics with VM Agent

The Victoria Metrics Agent collects metrics from your infrastructure and applications using standard scraping mechanisms, then forwards them to Kloudfuse via the Prometheus Remote Write protocol. This guide covers the essential setup steps, including Helm installation and configuration, to connect your metrics source to the Kloudfuse platform.

You can use the Victoria Metrics Agent to scrape metrics from a source, and then send them to Kloudfuse using the Prometheus Remote Write protocol.

Helm Installation

  1. Ensure that in the values.yaml file, remoteWrite configuration points to the Kloudfuse stack.

  2. Add http://<REPLACE KFUSE ADDRESS>/write as one of the entries in the remoteWrite section of the file. Use http or https protocols, depending on your scenario.

    remoteWrite:
- url: http://<REPLACE KFUSE ADDRESS>/write
    yaml

  3. Install the Victoria Metrics Agent; replace NAMESPACE with the namespace where you install the agent.

    helm upgrade --install vma oci://ghcr.io/victoriametrics/helm-charts/victoria-metrics-agent -f values.yaml -n NAMESPACE
